Best of Atlanta 2014 is here. PARTY PARTY PARTY PARTY
Go backstage with the best! Party Sept. 24 at the Goat Farm.
The time has finally arrived for the CL staff to collapse from exhaustion and for you to enjoy Best of Atlanta — our biggest, baddest, most anticipated issue of the year. Thousands and thousands of you voted in hundreds of categories to name your favorite art opening, restaurant, attraction, bartender, and more. We, the critics, scoured the city and racked our brains for the most impressive, memorable, and insightful people, places and things of the last year. For our 2014 Best of Atlanta, we worked around the theme of Backstage. We let it inform our design, photography, and a few new features. Our “Backstage with...” profiles highlight the people doing hard, often unnoticed work behind the scenes of the Best of winners. “The Making of ...” infographics dissect five critics picks winners in pictures to reveal their moving parts.
As usual, we’re having a party and you’re invited! This year it takes place at the Goat Farm and is hosted by D.R.E.S. tha BEATnik, the party includes Reptar, Man or Astro-Man?, Little Tybee, Two-9, and All Vinyl Everything in its lineup. Also there’ll be an art installation by Nikki Starz, a performance by Brigitte Bidet of Legendary Children, and free food from Bhojanic, Waffle House, Community Q, NaanStop, the General Muir, and more. Tickets are $20 in advance, $25 at the door, or $50 for VIP passes, which include additional nibbles and signature Larceny bourbon cocktails from the Pinewood.
