East Point's Annual “Salute to the Red, White & Blue”

From the venue:

The City of East Point and the East Point Main Street Association will host once again its annual Salute to the Red, White & Blue, a free, family-friendly Independence Day celebration featuring live music, local vendor market, kids’ games and entertainment and the largest fireworks display in South Fulton County.

The event, held at the Downtown East Point Commons, will be hosted by Sinnamen Success and DJ Fie and will include performances from a diverse lineup of Georgia-based artists.

Many of East Point’s local businesses will join in the festivities, including restaurant and live entertainment venue Rich & Pour Opulence Lounge, a city staple and major community advocate. A sponsor of this year’s event, Rich & Pour will also celebrate its grand reopening as part of the festivities.

“When I opened Rich & Pour, I wasn’t just building a business. I was investing in the community of East Point,” said Rich Dillard, owner of Rich & Pour. “When the city came to me about being part of this event, I was all in, because I believe in what’s possible here. Rich & Pour being a part of a moment like this feels aligned with our whole purpose. It's not just fireworks and music. It's about creating memorable experiences. There's no point like East Point, and we're excited to help the community shine.”
“This event is a reflection of everything that makes East Point special—our culture, our creativity, and our spirit,” said Kristin Jackson, board member with the East Point Main Street Association. “For more than 16 years, our residents, businesses, local leaders and friends have come together for what we proudly call a ‘homecoming.’ It’s really special to see so many, not only supporting the event, but using it as a platform to connect with the community and each other in a meaningful way.”

Performance highlights include:

Dri Jack: A Tri-Cities High School alum and South Fulton native, Dri Jack is a former winner of Issa Rae’s RAEDIO Creators Program and a 2023 grantee of the National Black Arts Festival’s Artist Fund.

Amayé Love: Emerging singer and songwriter Amayé Love has become known for her vocal range and versatility across R&B, rock, funk, and jazz, with performances on national stages, including the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl ring ceremonies and “The Jennifer Hudson Show.”

Tony Evans Jr.: Hailing from Country Roads, Georgia, Tony Evans Jr. blends Southern storytelling with the soul of R&B into his distinct country sound.

RAHBI: An Atlanta native known for his genre-blending, funk-infused performances, RAHBI was recently described by WABE as “redefining Southern Atlanta’s sound with music deeply rooted in the region’s rich cultural tapestry.” A longtime fixture in the city’s creative scene, he has shared stages with SZA, Tyler the Creator and Big Freedia.
