What do the numbers 25-35-40-12-4 mean to you? Winning lottery numbers? Numbers to a combination lock? A little of both! You’ll think you won the lottery when you purchase Tour of Homes tickets at the amazing neighbor price of $25! It’s a well-kept secret. Knowing where you can make the purchase unlocks the winning combination.

There are always three pricing options for Tour of Homes tickets. And it’s not too early to make your plans. The best day for neighbors to tour is Friday, April 28, as streets are open and the houses are not as crowded. It’s easy to park if you’re driving. Plus, you can visit with homeowners and get design or color tips at the start of our legendary 51^st Festival. Your Tour ticket is good all three days of Festival. 

$25 Inman Park Neighbor Advance Sale Price

Hello neighbors,

We are excited to announce that the 2021 Inman Park Tour of Gardens AUCTION is now LIVE!  https://qtego.net/qlink/inmanpark

Thanks to generous donations from our sponsors and neighbors, we have a unique selection of 12 items, some only available in this auction!

Most of you probably already know the sad news that the festival has been postponed/cancelled but here is the official statement:

Our top priority is the safety and health of our patrons, artists, guests, staff, vendors and community. Therefore, due to COVID-19 concerns, Inman Park Spring Festival & Tour of Homes, scheduled to take place April 24-26, 2020 will be postponed or cancelled. We are evaluating if a rescheduled event is possible or if we will see you next April, 2021. We will announce more information in the next few weeks. We encourage all to adhere to the CDC guidelines to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Please join us at the 2020 Festival Volunteer Fair on March 22 at the Trolley Barn from 3-5 pm.

The Inman Park Festival and Tour of Homes requires hundreds of volunteers to be successful.  There are 26 areas where you can volunteer for only a 2 hour shift (comes with free beer for the 21+ crowd).  Take a couple hours to help, meet some new neighbors, have fun and feel like you are part of running the best festival in the city.  We are the largest volunteer-run festival in the Southeast!  We need your help.

Calling all golf carts!!

It's time more neighbors got involved in Atlanta's zaniest and most colorful parade. If a float seems like too much to manage this late in the game (apathetic chicken), think about competing in the Neighborhood Golf Cart Contest! Flowers - butterflies - balloons - streamers - skeletons? Anything goes! Just gussy up that golf buggy and give it a whirl!   

In addition to the sheer fame and glory of simply being in the Parade, you could win an AMAZING blue ribbon to pass on to your grandchildren.

Email [email protected] to register and for more information.  (You gotta register!)

Please pay close attention to the street closing and remove your cars from the streets prior to the closing in order to avoid being towed. 

Closed Friday, Saturday, Sunday:

There are new rules for personal golf carts during Inman Park Festival this year. Personal Golf carts will not be allowed in the festival footprint during festival hours. They may park nearby. The only exception is Butterfly Ball. Personal golf carts will be allowed near the tent Friday night. 

Below is a map that details where personal golf carts will be allowed Saturday and Sunday.

(Non-alcoholic drinks are complimentary as well.)

2017 Festival Artwork Winner

The artwork for the 2017 Inman Park Festival and Tour of Homes has been selected, and the designer is Mindy Phan. She’s a native of Saigon, Vietnam, and has been an Atlanta resident for about 12 years. Mindy is a graphic designer, and encouraged by her friends to showcase her art more publicly, she entered our Festival design contest. She’s been passionate about drawing since she was “a little kid”, but really started to advance her skills when she was accepted into a graphic design program in college. She loves to hike, and says that exploring different places and learning their histories broadens her horizons. When asked for a fun fact about herself to share, she responded, “I have a never-ending love for food!”

Mindy’s inspiration was the artwork on the BeltLine and within Inman Park, and since her discovery of the neighborhood occurred while she was on her bicycle, she used that as the central theme of her design, with the background butterflies symbolizing the rebirth of the neighborhood.
