ABOUT THE FESTIVAL:
Arts in the Heart of Augusta Festival is September 20 – 22 on Broad Street in downtown Augusta, Georgia.

The Festival will feature platinum selling Austin alt-rock band Fastball on the Global Stage at 7:30pm on Saturday, September 21st. Fastball chart-topping hits include “The Way” and “Out Of My Head.”
Grammy Nominated Jazz performer Georgia Muldrow will be performing Friday, September 20th at 7:00pm on the Jazz Stage. Her “Overload” album was nominated for a 2020 Grammy.

With over 100,000 attendees, the festival has grown to become an iconic representation of Arts in Georgia. We will have over 150 juried Fine Arts and Crafts artists this year, with artists coming from all over the United States to be a part of our award-winning festival.

We are pleased to announce Menia Chester as our new Festival Chairperson for 2024. Menia said, “I’m excited about guiding the festival forward in its new location and presenting some very exciting and diverse performers this year!”
Our five stages of non-stop entertainment include everything from hip hop to jazz to rock. This year we’re very excited to be featuring Augusta as a Music City. Thanks to a special grant from Destination Augusta, we will be featuring Fastball on the Global Stage and Georgia Muldrow on the Jazz Stage. Music has grown to be a dynamic part of Arts in the Heart and that will be especially true this year.

The global food village is famous for its authentic taste of global cuisine and will tempt food lovers with 20 authentic cuisine booths. All the favorites are returning, as well as Pacific Islanders and Jamaica.

The large Family Area is packed with interactive children’s activities, street performers, public art, and a Young Artists Market. Artzilla returns with local artists painting live all weekend. The Authors Lounge also returns and will feature Georgia authors and book signings. Limited edition 2024 Festival Merchandise will also be available, including the collectible Festival Teddy Bears. Last year we sold out of everything quickly.
Advanced Festival badges are available online now, and will be available at select locations in Augusta and Aiken in August. Check the Festival social media for updates. Pets and coolers are not allowed in the Festival. Lawn chairs are welcomed. Arts in the Heart of Augusta is a rain or shine event.

Arts in the Heart of Augusta Festival was named the Best Festival by the Southeast Tourism Society in 2020 and “Best for 2023” Festival (ranked 52nd best in the entire country!) by Sunshine Artist. We were also awarded Best Festival in 2023 by the readers of Augusta Magazine and Columbia County Magazine.
