Setting up outdoors in Georgia
Georgia vendors work through hot, humid summers and a spring pollen season that coats everything in yellow dust, so a canopy that wipes clean and a top that can be hosed down earn their keep. Pop-up thunderstorms are common from late spring through summer. The best outdoor weather, spring and fall, is also festival season, which means Atlanta weekends are crowded and a booth needs a strong read from a distance to be noticed.
