Festivals of Speed Is Bringing the Heat to Atlanta, May 20

Supercar & sportscar owners are set to gather in Georgia for must-see annual showcase of world’s best & fastest luxury vehicles.

Festivals of Speed are exactly what they sound like: A series of gatherings focused on the supercar, sports car, and exotic car culture. (For a good look at what these awesome celebrations are all about, check out the ‘Vettes and other badass rides from the recent Festivals of Speed in St. Petersburg, Florida, as captured through the lens of popular YouTuber MaverickMSM, below.)

The next Festivals of Speed event is the annual Atlanta showcase, set to take place May 20 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. along Avalon Boulevard in Alpharetta, with the heart of the action at 2200 Avalon Boulevard.

The motorsport display will showcase the world’s most exotic cars, motorcycles, and luxury brands. Featured will be both vintage and contemporary vehicles of all makes and models, including automotive designs by Lamborghini, Porsche, Ferrari, McLaren, and more.

Festivals of Speed is also a proud supporter of Corvette Forum, and we expect many ‘Vettes to be in attendance, too.

That said, it’s more than just a massive show and display event. The May 20 Festivals of Speed event supports the Shepherd Center of Atlanta, a prominent research and rehabilitation hospital for spinal cord and brain injuries. The event is free to attend, as long as you pre-register on their site.

For those who want to go the extra mile, VIP tickets can be purchased for $125. Not only will you be supporting the Shepherd Center but you will be treated to a private dining experience at the event. It all sounds pretty sweet to us. An on-site hotel is also available, making for a convenient arrive-and-go experience.

Check out all the amazing vehicles and hot action from last year’s Festivals of Speed in the clip below. Then make sure you get your free admission by registering on the Festivals of Speed website, where you’ll also find additional details on what is sure to be the event of the summer!
