District After Dusk

January 17 • February 21 • March 21

District After Dusk invites you to experience Pier Road in a whole new light! On the third Saturday of each month during the winter season, from 3-8 p.m., stroll the Historic District as the sun sets and The District Shops come alive with live music, food trucks, family-fun activities, and nightly shopping and dining specials.

 Enjoy performances from local bands, free carnival-style games and activities for kids, along with live demonstrations and tastings from several Georgia Grown vendors. Take advantage of evening tours of DuBignon Cottage and discover exclusive in-shop discounts throughout the District. And, exclusively during the January and February events, keep an eye out for two hidden Island Treasures tucked away within the District!
