The Alphas of Atlanta, Inc, a Metro-Atlanta nonprofit comprised of members from the area graduate chapters, is hosting their 10th edition of the #AlphaDerbyWeekendTM May 1-4, 2025 (presented by Woodford Reserve). The Kentucky Derby themed event is a destination benefit weekend series designed to support the efforts of the nonprofit and related entities’ efforts for service and outreach to emerging communities for elementary, middle, and high schools (to date, nearly $300,000 is raised to support these causes). With an increasing attendance each year, including an event record 4,000 attendees in 2023 (exceeding the previous mark of 3,700 in 2018), they are primed for hosting another engaging weekend with a “family affair/reunion” theme.
The weekend lineup includes their golf tournament (which sells out each year), their kickoff evening activies ranging from health-fairs and their classic hip-hop/90’s r and b themed concerts (which have previously featured icons Doug E. Fresh (2018), Big Daddy Kane (2019), Chubb Rock (2019), WeRFly (2019), Slick Rick (2022), Crime Mob (2022), an ode to 90’s/early 2000’s Atlanta hip-hop (featuring Young Dro, Fabo, Pastor Troy, and Lil’ Scrappy), Bobby V (2024), and saxophonist Trey Daniels (who has played with Anita Baker and Prince among other artists), our watch event on the day of the race, and concluding with their Sunday Brunch affair.
For complete details (i.e. tickets, branding opportunities, hotel/travel, and related information) along with points of reference via their photo/video gallery from the 2024 edition, you are encouraged to visit their website of www.alphaderbyweekend.com; for breaking updates, you may engage and interact with them on their Facebook page (Alphas of Atlanta), Twitter/InstagramYouTube pages (@AlphasOfAtlanta), their @alpha_derby social media (Instagram/Twitter), along with the hashtags #AlphaDerbyWeekendTM, #AlphaDerby, and #AlphasOfAtlanta. You may contact us via email at [email protected] (for general information), [email protected] (for press/media information), and [email protected] (for sponsor opportunities to support our event); thanks to your support, the Alphas of Atlanta and the #AlphaDerbyWeekend truly help make an impact felt throughout the metro Atlanta area and beyond (as 1/3 of our guests come from outside the state of Georgia).
We welcome scheduling in-person and related opportunities to share details and updates on our event with your organization, media outlet, and related entity (between January-April 2025).
We invite you to be a part of our family affair/reunion as we welcome you to join us in the Winner’s Circle!
