This October, Atlanta Pride is going to be an in-person festival after two years of cancellations due to COVID-19. From October 7 through 9, thousands of people from around the country will gather in Piedmont Park to enjoy this year’s diverse lineup of entertainment, vendors, marches, the annual parade, and so much more. While Atlanta Pride is making its return, that doesn’t mean COVID-19 is no longer a concern. The Atlanta Pride Committee (APC) is being mindful of the pandemic, as well as the recent monkeypox epidemic, and urges guests to do the same. While talking to Georgia Voice, Shentoria Cobbs, APC’s Communications and Development Strategist said, “We are aware of the high stakes right now given that this is the first festival back in person after two years on hold because of COVID." She also confirmed that masks will be provided at the event. Atlanta, especially for LGBTQ+ gigantic South Florida community is perfect for a weekend visit for Pride.
