Pullman Yards will premiere never-before-seen footage from the historic Atlanta International Pop Festival during That 70s Experience, an immersive event taking place June 20, 2026, in Atlanta, Georgia.
Often mentioned in the same breath as one of the more recognizable festivals of the time, such as Woodstock, the Isle of Wight, or Summer Jam, is the Alex Cooley-produced Atlanta International Pop Festival. A giant of its time, with crowd estimates ranging between 150,000 and 600,000 and featuring artists like rock icon Jimi Hendrix, Grand Funk Railroad, B.B. King, and up-and-coming Macon-based The Allman Brothers Band, time has largely forgotten one of the first great rock festivals of the seventies — until now.
Recently discovered and never-before-seen lost footage, revived through a special archival restoration process, will bring the summer of 1970 roaring back to life. Premiering June 20 at the historic Pullman Yards, the footage will be showcased in a part immersive experience, part music history resurrection, as fans walk through rooms filled with footage from the actual festival.
Dubbed That 70s Experience, the one-day-only event will transport fans through a portal into the charged time period that danced the line between counterculture and carefree, reckless abandon. In addition to the curated rooms showcasing the footage from the Atlanta International Pop Festival, activations will be throughout the experience. Fans can rock out to live music and DJ sets, shop retro wares in the vintage market, ink up with an on-site tattoo artist, hit the four-wheeled motion on the roller rink, grab some nosh from the food trucks, have a drink or two, and explore the 70s at their own pace.
Limited Early Bird tickets for That 70s Experience are on sale now at the original, 1970 Atlanta International Pop Festival price of $16 before fees for Pullman Yards subscribers. Fans can purchase general admission tickets through the link in Pullman Yards' Instagram @PrattPullmanDistrict. That 70s Experience is an all-ages event.
