Four bands - playing everything from Latin rhythms to jazz - will give the party a spark.
Streets will be closed to give folks an opporunity to stroll the heart of the community, support the new stores and restaurants and visit with neigbhors. Last year, an estimated 5,000 people came out.
Weather on Saturday is supposed to be sunny and in the 70s.
The fall tradition is sponsored by a variety of local establishments, who come together as the East Point Main Street Association, a group focused on enhancing the central business district of downtown East Point.
