Venue cancels Freaknik plans

DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. - It looks like Freaknik will not be returning to metro Atlanta, at least for now.

Promoters wanted to bring the event back and planned a Freaknik at the Atrium in Stone Mountain for the Labor Day weekend, but the owner of the venue cancelled the event.

He said he did not know the event was billed as Freaknik.

He also said he supports the Black Lives Matter movement, and does not feel this event represents the movement's goals.
