Few People Know The Small Town Of Braselton, Georgia Is Home To A Massive Antique And Art Festival

The town of Braselton is a fairly small one. With a population of around 12,000, it's a decent-sized city, but not one that's well-known outside of its region. It's located about 40 miles north of Atlanta and is in parts of Hall, Jackson, and Gwinnett Counties. There's a surprising amount to do in this area, with plenty of restaurants and shops to check out, as well as the stunning Chateau Elan, one of the best wineries in Georgia. One other attraction in Braselton that draws many to the town is the bi-annual Braselton Antique and Artisan Festival held each year in April and October.
