About Phoenix Flies

Atlanta’s historic built environment of buildings, landscapes and neighborhoods is an integral part of the city’s culture and economy. Phoenix Flies: A Celebration of Atlanta’s Historic Sites provides an opportunity to learn about, celebrate and strengthen Atlanta’s historic and cultural assets. The celebration was created in 2003 by the Atlanta Preservation Center as a way to celebrate the anniversary of the dramatic rescue of the Fox Theatre, an event that changed Atlanta’s preservation perspective forever. Phoenix Flies 2026 is the 23rd year that the APC has brought together organizations and individuals from around the community to demonstrate the value of Atlanta’s historic built environment. The celebration has grown from 16 preservation partners and 40 events to an average of 100 partners offering over 200 events each year.
