Each week, Danie B compiles a list of interesting things to do in and around the ATL, and there is so much happening this Labor Day Weekend, including our 50th Anniversary Concert at Synovus Bank Amphitheater at Chastain Park, Black Gay Pride, DragonCon, and so much more! Traffic will probably be nuts, so if you can, take MARTA. Temperatures are going to be in the high 90s, so stay hydrated, have fun, and be safe!
