Pittsburgh Community Market Lantern Making Workshop and Parade

May 3 @ 12:00 pm - 7:00 pm

May 3rd, 5:20 pm
The Kids Parade at Pittsburgh Yards will begin at 6 pm! The Atlanta Indie Market vendors will be at Pittsburgh Yards. See you at Pittsburgh Yards! 
repost from @atlantabeltline Due to forecasted thunderstorms beginning around 8:00 p.m., we’ve made the difficult decision to cancel tonight’s Lantern Parade out of an abundance of caution for the safety and well-being of parade goers, marshals, band members, and the general public.
We invite everyone to still join us at our Kids Parade at Pittsburgh Yards at 6:00 p.m., and at our vendor market at the Atlanta Beltline Marketplace @ Allene location. The vendor activations at 1200 White Street and Lee+White will also be open until 7:00 p.m.

Get ready for a magical evening of community, creativity, and fun!

On May 3rd, 2025, Organized by The Atlanta Beltline, the event hosts are The Pittsburgh Community Market, with Atlanta Indie Market and The Happy Black Parent are bringing you an exciting Lantern Parade and Family Fun Event!

Kids will kick off the event at Pittsburgh Yards, on The James Bridges Field where they’ll show off their hand-crafted lanterns, led by the incredible Atlanta Ol’ Skool Drummers. They’ll parade around Pittsburgh Yards® and part of the Southside Beltline Trail, lighting up the early evening with their vibrant creations. After the lantern parade, families can continue the celebration as they head toward Adair Park for the official Atlanta Beltline Lantern Parade.

This is the perfect event for families, creatives, and anyone who wants to experience the heart of Atlanta. 🎉 Come for the lantern parade, stay for the music, food, and performances along the Beltline!
