ATLANTA — The first of five Atlanta Streets Alive community events planned for this year happened on Sunday.

Peachtree Street will be closed between 15th Street NW and Alabama Street SW between 2 p.m. and 6 p.m.

Atlanta’s Annual Streets Alive is a free, all-ages event that encourages not only pedestrians and cyclists to attend, but also welcomes e-bikes, e-scooters, Onewheels, skateboards, Segways, and similar devices.

Organizers say the car-free event celebrates Atlanta’s urban core and supports local businesses.
