Starting Dec. 14, the mixed-use destination will host its first holiday events

High Street, the cosmopolitan mixed-use district in the heart of Atlanta’s Perimeter, is hosting its first season of holiday events this month, bringing celebrations for all ages to enjoy on its newly activated greenspace. The two weekends of festivities will include ornament-making, a saxophone and s’mores night, a kids’ DIY event, a surprise appearance from the Grinch, live music and gift-wrapping. The events will be completely free and take place on High Street’s greenspace in front of Puttshack to kick off the holiday season. 

“We crafted a thoughtful mix of events to ensure there’s something for everyone to enjoy this holiday season at High Street,” said Shaneika Haskins, High Street’s new Marketing Manager. “These celebrations mark the first activations on our expansive greenspace and follow the successful openings of several of our retail and restaurant tenants, highlighting High Street’s position as a dynamic town center for Atlanta’s Perimeter. We look forward to welcoming the community with our signature Holidays at High Street events.”

A full line-up of Holidays at High Street is outlined below:

Sip & Snip: On Saturday, Dec. 14 from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., the community is invited to craft their own handmade wreaths on High Street’s greenspace. Guests can sip while they snip from the free hot chocolate bar.
