Atlanta is a year-round destination, with almost as many things to do in January as in the warmer months of spring through fall.
The weather this month is unpredictable. Atlanta’s winters are generally mild, with average highs in the 50s. Colder weather is possible, but January can also bring beautiful, sunny days with temperatures rising into the 70s.
On cold days, take advantage of Atlanta’s huge range of indoor attractions: museums, art, concerts, the aquarium, shopping, food halls, and so on. On warmer, sunny days, the weather can be just right for wandering through the city’s varied neighborhoods; for hiking, whether outside of the city or along the BeltLine; and for other outdoor activities.
Atlanta’s January event highlights include the various Martin Luther King Day celebrations and parade. Other things to do in January include wine and food festivals, and the Cathedral Antiques Show and Tour of Homes.
