Swan House Ball
Saturday, April 24, 2027

A beloved Atlanta tradition, the 41st Annual Swan House Ball will bring together Atlanta’s business, community, and philanthropic leaders for an unforgettable evening of timeless elegance and celebration at Atlanta History Center. This year, the Ball will honor David Cummings, distinguished technology entrepreneur and founder of Atlanta Tech Village, whose commitment to innovation and investment in Atlanta’s historic South Downtown reflects the spirit of community leadership that helps shape our city’s future.

Honorary event chairs Beau Allen, Jon Birdsong, and Kennedy Hicks invite you to join them for this signature evening in support of Atlanta History Center’s mission to connect people, culture, and history.

Funds raised through the Swan House Ball support Atlanta History Center and its award-winning educational programs, helping preserve Atlanta’s rich history and inspire future generations.
