Description

Bring your family to experience the energy and color of the largest Native American gathering in Georgia. Free to Mountain Members, the four-day Native American Festival, and Pow-Wow was named a Top 20 Event by the Southeast Tourism Society.

Held at Stone Mountain Park’s Historic Square, the event showcases Native American culture through dance, music, authentic craft demonstrations, cooking traditions, storytelling, wildlife presentations and more.

Experience the central role of dance in native culture as Native Americans from across the U.S. and Central America compete in intertribal dance and drum competitions

Learn about primitive skills such as flint-knapping, bow making, fire starting, open fire cooking, and pottery. Crawl inside a tipi and other traditional native dwellings. Parents and children participate in interactive experiences such as an encampment showing the lifestyle of local and regional historic Native American cultures.

Find that one-of-a-kind holiday gift in the artists' marketplace, where world-renowned Native and Native-inspired artists and crafters demonstrate their skills and offer hand-crafted items for sale.

Native American Festival & Pow Wow is included in your all-attractions Adventure Pass ticket, which also includes access to exciting attractions such as Geyser Towers®, Summit Skyride, Scenic Railroad, Mini-Golf and more!
