2024 DRAGON CON PARADE: Info & How To Watch At Home

Atlanta’s most colorful and always popular Dragon Con Parade kicks off  tomorrow, Saturday, Aug. 31 at 10 am ET. The Dragon Con Parade is the largest parade in Atlanta and I can’t wait. I’ve seen some amazing cosplay already this year and know there will be great cosplay on display! The parade free, family friendly and open to the public.

The parade route remains the same as in past years. Beginning at the intersection of Peachtree Street and Linden Avenue, the parade will head south on Peachtree, east (left) on Andrew Young International Boulevard and north (left) on Peachtree Center Avenue. It will end on Peachtree Center Avenue between John Portman Boulevard and Baker Street, in front of the Atlanta Marriott Marquis.

The route is convenient to three MARTA stations – North Avenue, Civic Center, and Peachtree Center. Parking downtown is expected to be tight. Dragon Con encourages parade spectators to ride MARTA.

How to Watch from Home

The 2024 parade will once again be televised live on Atlanta 69. Live coverage will begin at 10 am ET and will remain on air through the entire parade, with a time-edited rebroadcast on Sunday, Sept. 1 at 10 pm ET.

There are a number of live streaming options. DCTV will broadcast the parade live on a closed circuit to the convention’s host hotels, with rebroadcasts throughout the weekend. Parade coverage will also be available through Dragon Con’s streaming membership available at dragoncon.tv.  Click here to purchase a streaming membership for $10.
