Don’t you just LOVE West Cobb? I believe one of the best things about our area is it’s proximity to so many fun things to do, and places to go.
Each week I try to find fun events in West Cobb, but also close enough to make for a fun afternoon in surrounding Cities and areas. This list does try to focus on Events in Powder Springs, Marietta, Kennesaw, Acworth and Smyrna with a few of the Bigger Atlanta Venues like Truist Park, The Fox Theatre, Cobb Energy Ctr etc.
I hope you’ll find the information helpful in planning your weekly schedule. I also have links to Hillgrove and Harrison Athletics and Hillgrove, Harrison and Allatoona Performing Arts programs.
