It typically spans five nights and features performances by a diverse array of songwriters, ranging from established artists to up-and-coming talents. The festival's name is a nod to the Tin Pan Alley district in New York City, which was a major hub for music publishers and songwriters in the early 20th century.

The focus is on the art of songwriting, and attendees have the opportunity to hear the stories behind the songs and gain insight into the creative process. The festival provides a platform for songwriters to connect with fans and industry professionals while fostering a sense of community among those who share a passion for music.

The SweetWater 420 Fest originated in 2004 as a celebration of music and sustainability, inspired by the Earth Day movement. The festival takes its name from the SweetWater Brewing Company, a local Atlanta brewery and the event's main sponsor. Initially envisioned as a one-day Earth Day party, the festival grew over the years, expanding to a full weekend of music, art, and environmental awareness. The organizers aimed to create an event that not only provided entertainment but also promoted eco-friendly practices and community engagement. The festival not only showcases live music but also emphasizes environmental sustainability, offering eco-friendly initiatives, a 5K run, and an artist market.
