Past performers like Dave Chappelle, Chris Rock, Mike Epps, Steve Harvey, and Damon Wayans, are just some of the comedic geniuses that have shared their musings with the crowd at Uptown.

Join in the celebration of Caribbean culture at the Atlanta Caribbean Carnival. Bright costumes, music and parades are a large part of this festival, along with Caribbean food, arts and crafts, and other live entertainment. The festival is celebrated right before Lent, and is somewhat of a "last hurrah" before the observation of the Catholic tradition.

Sometimes the simplest dates can be the most romantic. Enjoy an intimate conversation over a cup of coffee at Cafe Intermezzo. This isn't your average coffee shop though; Cafe Intermezzo has a breakfast, lunch, and dinner menu, serves a wide range of coffees, beers, wine and other beverages, and has an impressive list of desserts.

If you're a fan of beer, take a tour at Red Brick Brewing. This brewing company is the oldest craft brewery in the state of Georgia, meaning they know a thing or two about making beer! $10 earns you a souvenir pint glass, four tastings, and information on how they concoct their delicious beers. Also, keep an eye on the calendar for various events at Red Brick, including live music, and fun and games.
