All Stripes

We’ve got another week of great World Cup action! Come out and join us at The Works in West Midtown or at Lore in Sweet Auburn for more exciting matches. We can’t wait to see you there!

Today we pause and celebrate Juneteenth Freedom Day. A cornerstone of the Juneteenth celebration is education, so we would like to share the history and meaning of this holiday.

The holiday is a celebration and remembrance of June 19, 1865, when the final enforcement order of the Emancipation Proclamation was given in Texas. Despite the Emancipation Proclamation going into effect 900 days earlier and the final surrender of the Confederacy taking place 71 days earlier, rural Texas did not free enslaved Africans until this final order. While it was not declared a federal holiday until 2021, Juneteenth Freedom Day has been celebrated since 1866. Because Black Americans were still prohibited from many public spaces, these celebrations often took place at churches. Since the 1970's, these celebrations have become larger and more common across the country.

Ready for some more World Cup action? We’re bringing you more great events this week! Come out and join us, see what all the fuss is about, and feel the energy like never before.

⚽🌎 The World Cup is almost here, and we’re kicking things off in style!

We’ll be joined by City of Atlanta Government Department of LGBTQ affairs, All Stripes, and Pride House Atlanta, along with special guests including Mayor Andre Dickens, Dewayne Queen (Director of LGBTQ+ Affairs for the City of Atlanta), Council Member Alex Wan, and many more community leaders and supporters.

With 19 events across the state, you're bound to be close to a Pride Festival in Georgia this year. Visibility is important. Showing folks that they're not alone, that we exist, and that we live right by them can make all the difference. So take the opportunity to get out, meet the local LGBTQ+ communities across Georgia, and show we're not afraid and we're not backing down!

Happy Pride Month, fam! Every day presents an opportunity to live authentically and with pride. This month, we honor the pioneers who have fought tirelessly for our rights and freedoms. Unfortunately, these rights remain under threat, and we are reminded that our collective efforts must persist. By promoting visibility and solidarity, we continue to advocate for a more inclusive society.

We’re rolling out the peach carpet and brining you an event lineup with something for everyone. We’ll be in Buckhead, Decatur, Sweet Auburn, and the Upper Westside this summer so come out and see us.

That sure was a first half. But we’re having a blast with our beautiful All Stripes fam! There’s still time to come out and join us at Pour Taproom Midtown for the second half.

It's time for a rivalry battle royale! Come out and join us for the first of two matches against Orlando City SC on Saturday, May 16. We're partnering with Georgia Equality for this watch party so you can learn more about the amazing work they do across the state to advance LGBTQ+ rights. We'll be on the top floor of Pour Taproom - Midtown beginning at 7:00pm.

Paid parking is available in the 1180 Peachtree Garage with the first hour validated. You can also join us on MARTA by exiting at either the Arts Center or Midtown Stations and walking to 14th Street at Peachtree Street.
