Five years ago, Atlanta ranked 51st in the nation for park access. Today, we’ve reached our best-ever finish: 21st out of 100 cities. That kind of progress doesn’t happen by accident… it happens when a city believes every resident deserves access to nature, to community, to joy. Proud of Atlanta.

One of my favorite events of the year is back — and it’s bigger than ever. The 48th Annual Atlanta Jazz Festival returns to Piedmont Park May 24-26, 2025, right in time for Memorial Day Weekend. And the best part? It’s completely FREE. So grab your picnic blanket, call your crew, and meet me there!

This isn’t just a presidential election-year conversation. It’s an every-year commitment. Leadership, community, and progress don't pause between ballots. They demand our attention, our voices, and our actions every single day. Hear the full conversation today: linktr.ee/andreforatlanta

Sometimes, to get to the heart of the biggest issues, you’ve got to sit down and break bread. That’s exactly what I’m doing, with leaders from around the country, starting right here in Atlanta. Friday, I’m launching Breaking Bread, a new series where the conversations are raw, honest, and overdue.

I am beyond grateful and incredibly proud to be endorsed by the Atlanta Professional Fire Fighters, IAFF 134, and the International Association of Fire Fighters!

It was great celebrating Georgia Film Day last week with our Office of Film, Entertainment & Nightlife! The film and TV industry is such a huge part of what makes Atlanta special—bringing jobs, creativity, & excitement to our city. Three of the seven biggest films of 2024 were shot right here in GA!

Your Moving Atlanta Forward dollars at work! In conjunction with the Upper Westside CID, Atlanta, we’ve got a new connection! The Spur Trail is officially open, bridging the gap between our Upper Westside and Downtown with a .73-mile path AND we finished it six months ahead of schedule.

The news is out! I'm running for re-election as Mayor of Atlanta! Over the past few years, we’ve made real progress together, but there’s still work to be done. I’m committed to keeping our communities safe, strengthening our economy, and ensuring every Atlantan has the opportunity to thrive.

Spent time at the City Council Chambers celebrating the Women of Impact Award and honoring the incredible women shaping Atlanta's future. 💜✨ As we celebrate Women’s History Month, it's a reminder that the work of strong, dedicated women continues to leave a lasting impact on our city.

Atlanta just got a little more electric! We cut the ribbon on a brand-new EV and fresh EV chargers at the City Hall parking deck—because even our rides should keep up with the city’s energy! These additions are part of our ongoing commitment to sustainability and a cleaner, greener future for ATL.

My first week in officer, the Deputy COO (now COO) & I discussed the city’s biggest challenges—Fire Station 22 was one of them. Talked about since '09, but never built. We got it done. Now open, Fire Station 22 means faster response times, safer communities, & stronger emergency support for Atlanta.

Recently, I had the privilege of attending the nsoro Educational Foundation’s 2025 Starfish Ball at the St. Regis Atlanta, and it was truly an unforgettable evening. From the Mardi Gras-themed celebration to the inspiring performances by nsoro scholars, every detail felt special.
