The 18th annual EAST COBBER Parade & Festival is scheduled for Saturday, September 21. The day’s festivities will be kicked off by the EAST COBBER Parade at 10 am. The annual parade aims to build a sense of community and reinforce East Cobb County’s status as one of the best places to live in the metro Atlanta area. Floats, high school marching bands and a cornucopia of East Cobb groups will march down the one-mile parade route. Kicking off at 10 am, the parade participants will march from Mount Bethel Elementary School’s parking lot, travel south on Johnson Ferry Road, and then turn into the Fountains of Olde Towne shopping center.
Immediately following the EAST COBBER Parade, at approximately 11am, the EAST COBBER Festival will be held in the Fountains of Olde Towne shopping center (736 Johnson Ferry Road) parking lot. The Festival offers East Cobb County residents an opportunity to come together and enjoy an afternoon of local entertainment, carnival games and good food. Booths will be set up to showcase everything from jewelry to local schools to books. East Cobb kids will have plenty to do at the EAST COBBER Festival from getting their face painted to taking a chance at a carnival game to hopping in a moonwalk. Festival goers will also be treated to food from East Cobb restaurants and civic clubs.
