No Panels. No Programming. Just Good People.
Let’s be honest, we’ve all been to enough industry panels and rigid networking events. It’s time to shake off the format and just focus on connection.
Refuel is a casual evening designed for Atlanta’s broader creative, strategic, and innovative communities. Whether you work in design, strategy, product, engineering, or an adjacent field that helps shape experiences, you have a place here. We are widening the tent.
This gathering is a special public extension of Harmonic Design’s Practice Week—a dedicated time for our practitioners and our extended community to reconnect and reimagine what we do. This night isn’t about lecturing; it’s about refueling your inspiration and your social battery. No structured agendas—just good people, genuine conversations, and leaving with more energy than you walked in with.

Date: Wednesday, June 17, 2026
Time: 6 – 10 p.m.
Location: The Atlanta Eastside Beltline (Multiple Stops)
Because a good night needs a little momentum, we’ve timed out a casual hop along the Atlanta Beltline. Feel free to join us at the starting line or catch up with the group at whatever stop matches your schedule!
The Agenda (The “Refuel” Route)
6 p.m. | Stop 1: Burle’s Bar (505 N Angier Ave NE)
• Kick off the night with a view. Grab a drink, find the group, and settle in.
7:30 p.m. | Stop 2: New Realm Brewing Co. (550 Somerset Terrace NE)
• We’ll keep the energy moving down the Beltline for our second stop.
• 9 p.m. | Stop 3: Three Taverns Ponce Brew Terminal (680 North Avenue)
• Closing out the night with great conversation and a solid final pour.
Who is this for?
If you care about building things, solving problems, and connecting with the people who do it—this is for you. Designers, strategists, builders, thinkers, and friends are all welcome.
The First Drink is On Us
We want to kick off the night right. The first 30 community members to show up will get their first drink on Harmonic.
Here’s how it works:
- Please RSVP via Eventbrite so we can keep tabs on the headcount and send out any last-minute updates on where the group is gathered.
- When you arrive at the crawl, track down the team with the big balloon to claim your drink token.
- Once the 30 promotional tokens are claimed, the crawl shifts to a self-pay cash bar.
Getting There & Getting Home Safely
Because this is a casual hop down the Beltline, we highly encourage exploring alternative ways to get to the kickoff point and back home.
We want everyone to refuel safely, so we strongly recommend taking a rideshare (Uber/Lyft), riding a bike or scooter, or hopping on MARTA. Let’s keep the night fun and responsible!
How to Find Us in the Crowd
Some of these venues are big, but we’ve made it easy to spot the crew. Don’t wander around guessing—just look for:
- The Floating Landmark: Look for the giant orange balloon floating above our tables at every stop.
- Grab a Sticker: When you arrive, look for the Harmonic team near the entrance. We’ll hand you your a custom sticker so everyone on the crawl knows you’re part of the group.
