The Taste of Soul festival mixes quintessential Atlanta food and music to bring you two days of absolute joy. Set in one of Atlanta's oldest neighborhoods, where Martin Luther King and the heroes of the Civil Rights Movement made history, this festival is steeped in culture. Get passes to the cocktail and wine-tasting events or enjoy scrumptious dishes like fried chicken, grilled shrimp, ribs and peach cobbler by registering for free. Last year the R&B music festival was headlined by the luscious J Brown. 1-day concert plus wine-tasting passes started at $25.
