Juneteenth Weekend Celebration at Chattahoochee Food Works
About This Event
Atlanta's largest food hall transforms into a weekend-long Juneteenth marketplace on the Upper Westside, spotlighting Black-owned restaurants, food entrepreneurs, makers, and artists. The centerpiece Juneteenth Indie Market runs Saturday, June 20 from 2–5 p.m., when more than two dozen local vendors take over the hall with handmade goods, books, art, and culinary specialties; a live DJ keeps the celebration going from 5–9 p.m. The food hall format places emancipation's economic legacy front and center: small Black-owned food businesses thriving in a shared space directly answer the post-1865 question of what freedom in commerce looks like. Programming runs across Juneteenth weekend (June 19–21), woven through the venue's regular vendor lineup.
