The sunshine season has arrived, and it’s time to mark your calendar for some curiously fun summer events in Coweta! From boutique shopping to breathtaking fireworks and fine wine experiences, there’s something unforgettable waiting for everyone to enjoy.
Don’t sweat it: We know it gets hotter than a hoochie coochie, so most events take place in the easy, breezy evenings.
Spend your first long weekend of summer at our annual Memorial Day Celebration in Senoia on May 24th. Food trucks will keep bellies full and DJs spinning live music will have you grooving to the beat. Kid-friendly activities make this an evening the whole family will enjoy. Once the sun sets, fireworks will illuminate the night sky and put a twinkle in your eye.
Although Memorial Day has evolved into a day of celebration, it’s important to acknowledge the true reason for its observance – to honor and remember the courageous members of our armed forces who have made the ultimate sacrifice while serving our nation.
