SOUL FULL: Celebrate soul food, music and art this weekend at A Taste of Soul Atlanta.

The South’s got something to eat! This annual festival celebrates soul food favorites, drinks, music and art. Local chefs and food trucks will be serving up soulful staples like fried chicken, ribs, mac and cheese and collard greens, as well as Caribbean and vegan dishes. Spend the day chowing down while you peruse a variety of international art exhibits, vendors, games, tech displays and a Kid Zone. A 5K run/walk will take place at 9:30 a.m. and live soul music will play all day. The free festival, which takes place at the foot of the new Mercedes-Benz Stadium, concludes with a concert lineup stacked with soul and R&B artists like Frenchie Davis, Ricco Barino, 7AM, Jerome Holloway and others.
