ATHFEST is finally here! Wahooo!!! I personally am SO excited for this weekend, and there are TONS of fun events going on (whether you're interested in music or not). For the music fan, here are the AthFest events that I think everyone should make an effort to go to:
Thursday:
9:00 p.m. - You absolutely cannot miss the AthFest Kickoff Party at the beloved 40 Watt, featuring the Futurebirds, Roadside Graves, Ponderosa, and Immuzikation. This is going to be an awesome way to get AthFest started off right. Be there, it’s only $2!
Friday:
11:00 a.m. – Athens Music History Tour! Don’t miss it!
5:00 - 10:00 p.m. - Artists' Market near the Hull Street Stage Area
7:20 p.m. - Stewart & Winfield Band on the Lumpkin Stage!
9:00 p.m. – Modern Skirts on the Pulaski Stage!

12:00 - 5:30 p.m. - KidsFest on Hull Street
1:00 p.m. - Half Dozen Brass Band on the Pulaski Stage!
5:00 p.m. – Futurebirds on the Pulaski Stage!
9:00 p.m. - Nuçi's Space will be home to the only all-ages later show during this year's AthFest weekend. Also at 9 is Perpetual Groove on Pulaski Stage

There are lots of fun things to do this weekend, even if you're not into the AthFest scene. If you're not attending the festival, go to the First Annual Sculpture Festival at the Classic Center, venture to the Botanical Gardens for wine, hors d'oeuvres at Twilight Toasts in the Garden, or take the Full Moon Hike.
