Dixie Highway Yard Sale

The 90 mile Dixie Highway Yardsale is an annual event that spans ninety miles from Marietta to Acworth and on through North Georgia. This yard sale is also a historic driving tour along the Dixie Highway. In fact, one of the frequently purchased items is a souvenir version of the Dixie Highway road sign. In addition to the yard sale event, organizers in each area are promoting everything the communities have to offer throughout the year. The yardsale is on June 5, June 6, and June 7, 2009 and begins at 8am on each day. There are plenty of great restaurants along the route, and signs will be in place to direct you to the yard sales. If you have any questions, please call 1-800-733-2280.

Acworth Classic Car Show

The Acworth Classic Car Cruise takes place in Historic Downtown Acworth on Saturday, May 29 from 4pm to 10pm. The car show features everything from Chevy Chevelles to Model T Fords. Over 200 automobiles will be on display on Main Street between Lemon St and Morningside Dr. Admission is free to the general public.

If you would like to display your car, no registration is required and a $1 charity donation is requested. All donated funds go to support the Horizon Field special needs athletic program at the Acworth Sports Complex. Although there is space for up to 250 cars, it is suggested that you arrive between 3pm and 4pm if you would like to enter your vehicle and ensure you get a good parking spot.

Merchants in Downtown Acworth will remain open during the event so visitors can also enjoy some shopping or dining at a great Acworth restaurant.
