St. Francis Fest 2024
Come with your pets and celebrate Francis Fest 2024 with us! It begins at 5 pm on Saturday, October 5th , with the blessing of the animals followed by a party in our pop-up beer garden. Francis Fest is like the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi meets Oktoberfest but with Buford Hwy vibes.
St Francis of Assisi was full of God’s love for creation. He famously loved animals, and so for his feast, we celebrate the tradition of blessing our pets. Bring your dogs (or turtles, hamsters, fish...) to receive a blessing and stay for our beer garden with a live mariachi band. We’ll have food & drink, fun activities for kids, music, and lots of space for hanging out. Please invite friends and neighbors! Everyone is encouraged to attend. (And if you don’t have pets, just hang with us!)
We need help to throw a great party! Please consider finding a spot to jump in and signup here.
