What a fun night in Historic Downtown Rockmart!

We want to start by thanking ALL of the Rockmart businesses who participated in this year’s Festival of Treats! We appreciate the time, effort, and generosity you put into making this event so much fun for everyone!

And WOW, what a turnout! Thank you to all the families who came out and spent the afternoon with us! We loved seeing so many kiddos dressed up, treat bags filling up with goodies, and even our four-legged friends out enjoying the evening!

There were some great costumes, lots of laughter, and plenty of smiles all around. We hope everyone had as much fun as we did!

It’s nights like these that remind us what a great community we have. Thank y’all for coming out and being part of it!

And don't forget to come back to Historic Downtown Rockmart and support our local businesses! They have lots of fun things planned for the holidays, so stay tuned for a calendar of upcoming sales, promotions, and special events throughout the season.

November is looking pretty busy in Historic Downtown Rockmart, and we wouldn't have it any other way!

From the Rockmart High School Wrestling Event and Silver Comet Festival to holiday shopping at the Farmers Market, there's plenty happening downtown!

And don't forget the Rockmart Theatre! They've got some great entertainment lined up and will be getting us into the Christmas spirit starting mid-November!

Then we'll roll right into December with our Christmas Parade and Tree Lighting on December 1!

Polk County has so much going on this Halloween! There’s no shortage of ways to keep the kiddos busy, and we’re betting they’ll sleep REALLY well after a full day of fun!

Be sure to make Historic Downtown Rockmart’s Festival of Treats one of your stops this Saturday from 3–5 PM!

Lots of fun for the kiddos and hopefully an early bedtime for the parents!
