One of the best Halloween events in Atlanta is the Little 5 Points Halloween Parade, which takes place in the Little Five Points neighborhood of Atlanta during the Little Five Points Halloween Festival.
Little 5 Points is such an eclectic neighborhood in Atlanta, Georgia, and the Halloween parade is just as much fun.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Little 5 Points Halloween Festival and Parade in 2024.
L5P HALLOWEEN PARADE
The Little 5 Points Halloween Parade is a can’t miss!
In the past, the parade started at Austin Avenue and Euclid Avenue, before moving up Euclid to Moreland Avenue. In 2022, the route was on Moreland Avenue only — from Dekalb to Freedom Parkway. Check for 2024 route updates HERE. But generally speaking…follow the crowd!
This year, the parade will take place on Sunday, October 20, 2024 at 2pm.
BIZARRE BAZAAR HAUNTED MARKET
On both days of the Little Five Points Halloween Festival and Parade, October 19-20, 2024, from Noon to 6 p.m., you’ll find the BIZarre Bazaar Haunted Market on Euclid Avenue. Explore the artist market and see all the amazing handmade goods and art.
MORE L5P FESTIVAL OFFERINGS
The Little Five Points Halloween Festival is a two-day event featuring the world famous Little 5 Points Halloween Parade, live music from Atlanta’s best underground rock and hip-hop acts, an artist market, neighborhood ghost tours, a skate park, drag karaoke, food and alcohol vendors, food trucks, a costume show, and so much more!
LITTLE 5 POINTS: ATLANTA’S ALTERNATIVE SHOPPING DISTRICT
Little Five Points was the first commercial district outside of downtown Atlanta. The Little Five Points section forms the northeast boundary of the Inman Park neighborhood. From the beginning, L5P was an offbeat arts and shopping district. Locals refer to it as the “Southern version of Manhattan’s Greenwich Village.” The local counter-culture makes for some great people-watching, as well an unique shopping and entertainment — and that’s on a normal day.
That same vibe comes through (and is even magnified) during the annual Little Five Points Halloween Parade.
Arrive early and stay late — it’s one of the best Halloween events in the country. In addition to the parade, shopping and food vendors, the Little Five Points Halloween Festival includes live music on three stages – the Star Bar Stage, Wrecking Bar Brewpub/Findley Plaza Stage and the Star Bar Venue Stage.
TIPS FOR A GREAT EXPERIENCE AT THE L5P HALLOWEEN PARADE
- Parking can be really tight in L5P, so it’s best not to drive there during the festival weekend. Walk, bike, scooter, Lyft, Uber or take MARTA, if possible. The Inman Park MARTA Station is a short walk away from the festival. If you decide to Uber or use Lyft, get dropped off on Dekalb Ave. Here is a map of L5P.
- The Little 5 Points Halloween Parade is part of the L5P Halloween Festival, which will be held on October 19-20, 2024. There is the artists market, food vendors, and live entertainment on multiple stages.
- Some of the costumes you’ll see can be quite intense and can be a bit much for young children, although we always see kids who don’t seem to be scared at all. You may want to warn kids beforehand that it’s all make believe.
- For the most part, the floats and marchers in the parade are family-friendly, and there are lots of familiar characters for the kids too.
- If you’re looking for more spookiness, consider taking a Ghost Tour through Little 5 Points, and learn all about the neighborhood’s most eerie and historic landmarks. Runs on select dates in October and early November.
