The UGA Spotlight on the Arts Festival runs Nov. 2 to Nov. 22, 2026 at arts venues around the University of Georgia in Athens. It is a three-week run of performances, exhibitions and arts events, so you can pick the night or afternoon that fits your weekend instead of planning around a single date.

Planning Your Visit
Because the festival is made of many separate events, the organizer’s schedule is the place to choose one. Game-day weekends in Athens bring heavy traffic and full parking, so allow extra time if your visit lands on one.
Not confirmed here: which events fall on which day, event times, ticket prices and parking. Check the organizer’s schedule before you go.
