Description

We are back and ready to welcome you to SweetWater 420 Festival once again!  Give a new meaning to the term “beer run” by joining us for the annual SweetWater 420 Fest 5K on April 30, 2022 at 8:30 AM at Centennial Olympic Park!

That’s right, the annual SweetWater 420 Fest 5K is back right here in the heart of Atlanta. Grab a beer immediately after the race (drink ticket redeemable for beer–21+ only–or soft drinks/bottled water)… So jump on it ‘cause the number of entries for this year’s race is limited and may sell out quickly. Be sure to see the world class lineup for this year’s festival and score your discount code for $5 off your festival wristband with your 5K registration here: https://www.sweetwater420fest.com/420-fest-5k/
