Atlanta Jazz Festival - Let's Meet Up!

UPDATED 5.21.25

Hi Ladies!
I’m so excited that so many are joining us for this Saturday’s Atlanta Jazz Festival Meetup! Here's everything you need to know to make the most of this joyful day:

### Meetup Details

• Date: Saturday, May 24
• Time: I’ll be there by 10:15 AM and plan to stay until that evening (note I may leave before the last act at 9 PM)
• Location: Piedmont Park (enter at 10th Street & Charles Allen)
• Meeting Spot: Last year we set up not far from the Charles Allen entrance, near the restrooms on the outer perimeter. I'll do my best to get that same area. IF I HAVE TO SET UP IN A DIFFERENT AREA, I WILL SEND A TEXT AROUND 10:30 AM TO ALL WHO RSVP'D BY FRIDAY. (If I don't text it means I've secured the location referenced above.)
• I’ll mark our spot with blue and orange balloons to make it easier to find.

***

### Want to Enter Together?

• Meet me at the 10th & Charles Allen entrance at 10:15 AM if you’d like to walk in together.
• Please text me at 404-434-9192 to let me know you're planning to meet up at 10:15. . . . If not, I'll keep an eye on my TEXTS for those who arrive later. Please do not message in MEETUP, as the APP doesn't always update quickly.

### What to Bring

• Chair or blanket
• Your own food and drinks
• Sunscreen, cool clothes, and comfy shoes
• Optional: a small game or card deck if you’d like to spark some connection fun!
• I’m hoping to bring a small tent for shade, but everyone will need their own seating.

***

### Transportation & Parking Tips

• Plan ahead for parking or drop-off! Traffic can be crazy and residential parking is now restricted.
• Reserve parking early at [SpotHero.com](https://spothero.com/)
• Use MARTA – You can walk from the Midtown station which is four blocks away from the outer edge of the park (note walking across the park is a bit of a hike) . . . or Uber from the MARTA station
• Have someone drop you off at 10th & Charles Allen

Parking gets really tough later in the day—the earlier, the better!

Whether you're staying all day or just popping in to say hi, I can't wait to see you and share some sunshine, music, and YANA love. Let’s make this a beautiful day of joy and connection!

With love and jazz,
