On Friday, September 20, a portion of the Lenox Square parking lot in Buckhead will become an oasis of pop-up parks. This is the seventh year for Livable Buckhead’s PARK(ing) Day at Lenox Square, a project to temporarily convert parking spaces into creative places for art and play.

“It is our first PARK(ing) day since 2021, and we are thrilled to bring back this tradition,” said Denise Starling, executive director of Livable Buckhead. “Parks are a vital part of any community, and this event is a fun and interactive way to creatively remind us of that.”

PARK(ing) Day 2024 will bring together local businesses and community groups transforming standard-sized parking spaces into unique expressions of their respective organizations, and celebrating the exceptional establishments that make Buckhead a great place to live, work and play. This year’s event includes mini-parks with exciting and engaging features ranging from a pickleball court to a virtual reality simulator of the future Wieuca Road Roundabout to a boho Zen garden. Visitors will be asked to vote for their favorite mini-parks.

PARK(ing) Day will take place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Lenox Square parking lot along Peachtree Rd. In addition to the mini-parks, the Smash Hit Burgers food truck will be on-site for the Buckhead lunchtime crowd.
