In support of Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms’ 14-day stay-at-home order for all Atlantans and President Trump’s decision to extend social distancing guidelines through the end of April, the Atlanta BeltLine Partnership has extended cancellation or postponement of all of its events and programming through at least Thursday, April 30, according to a press release.

This includes all free fitness classes; weekly run club meetups; bus, bike and walking tours; and BeltLine volunteer events. The Atlanta BeltLine Center will remain closed to the public during this period.

Additionally, the Washington Park Jamboree scheduled for Saturday, May 2 will be rescheduled to an undetermined date in the future. Officials will continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation and post updates.

Residents are encouraged to visit the Atlanta BeltLine during less busy times (like early in the morning) and follow the safety guidelines such as social distancing and wearing gloves and masks.
