The chef lineup, below, will spotlight up-and-coming local chefs influencing the region’s ever-evolving dining scene, and their unique creations will reflect the best of the city’s cuisine in a collective harvest feast.

Festivities will begin at 5:30pm with a cocktail reception at Ponce City Market’s new residential building Signal House. The cocktail hour will highlight the beverage side of Atlanta’s dining experience with drinks from local industry vets and passed hors d’oeuvres. Following, guests will gather around festive tables at The Shed, Ponce City Market’s open-air gathering space alongside the Atlanta BeltLine, to enjoy an elevated, family-style, farm-to-table dinner showcasing the latest and greatest of Atlanta’s creative talents. Chefs will prepare seasonal ingredients sourced from local farms through Retaaza on Big Green Egg, the event’s official grilling partner and sponsor. Retaaza is a Georgia-based social enterprise that is on a mission to make local food more accessible and affordable by directly supporting communities’ farmers through food rescue and more, reconnecting the state’s consumers to their food, and feeding families struggling with food insecurity.

Proceeds from the event will benefit the James Beard Foundation, which celebrates and supports the people behind America’s food culture, while pushing for new standards in the restaurant industry to create a future where all have the opportunity to thrive.

This is the seventh year that Sunday Supper South will take place at Ponce City Market. Since first opening in 2015, Ponce City Market has been credited as a catalyst for revitalizing Atlanta’s Old Fourth Ward neighborhood.
