SuperNova South is just one short week away! And while next week will be full of amazing sessions and evening events, there’s also a ton going on in the city apart from the conference.

  1. Of Monsters and Men in Chastain Park

If you want to say goodbye to #SNS15 in style, end the week with this concert in the beautiful, open-air amphitheater in Chastain Park. The show starts at 8 pm on Friday, October 9, so the weather should be a bit cooler.

There’s so much going on before, during, and just after #SNS15. And of course, there are our own evening events: the Meet and Greet, Startup Showdown, and Sharpie Slam.

Haven’t gotten your tickets yet? What are you waiting for? It’s almost time for #SNS15!

  1. Shameless plug, I know, but if you’re a Walking Dead fan there are Big Zombie Tours from Atlanta Movie Tours this week and other tour offerings the weekend after #SNS15, including a TWD S6 viewing party at Smoke Ring in Castleberry Hill Sunday evening…just sayin’ 🙂
