MARIETTA, GA – The award-winning and fan-favorite event, Coffee, Campfires, and Cryptids, is back and more mysterious than ever! Join the City of Marietta’s Parks, Recreation & Facilities Department for an evening of myths, legends, and cryptic creatures on Friday, September 12, 2025, beginning at 6:00 PM in Atherton Square Park (4 Depot Street, Marietta, GA 30060).
Set against the cozy backdrop of a glowing campfire, this unique event invites attendees to dive into the strange and unexplained—from Bigfoot sightings in North Georgia to tales of sea monsters lurking near Savannah. Bring your curiosity, your favorite tall tales, and a warm drink as we explore local lore, swap stories, and celebrate the mysterious side of Georgia folklore.
This is a free, family-friendly event, and attendees are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and a sense of adventure.
