- The Virginia-Highland Tour of Homes has partnered with Creative Loafing to provide Tour Attendees with an all new guided tour audio experience! This free guided audio podcast will give you deeper insight into what makes each home unique, as you’re moving through the home. The podcasts are sponsored by Engineered Solutions of Georgia.
- Another trolley has been added this year, so the shuttles will run more frequently, and the hours of their operation have been extended on both Saturday and Sunday.
