Get ready, Atlanta, because Kevin Hart is about to bring the house down with his "Seriously Funny" stand-up tour. According to FOX 5 Atlanta, the Emmy and Grammy-nominated comedian will be performing his latest material at the Coca-Cola Roxy this weekend with shows on Friday and Sunday. Hart's comedic prowess is sure to leave audiences in stitches, so grab your tickets while you can.

On an unrelated but charming note, Chick-fil-A is offering families a bit of wholesome fun for Valentine's weekend with their annual Daddy Daughter Date Night on February 17. As part of the tradition that began in 2010, local establishments will convert into cozy date spots complete with cloth-covered tables, flowers, and balloons., all for the sake of creating special memories. To secure your spot at this heartwarming event, check Eventbrite for a reservation.

Moving over to cultural festivities, a Taste of Black Gwinnett is on the calendar to celebrate Black History Month. The event will be held at the Norcross Cultural Arts & Community Center on February 16. It promises a night filled with delectable cuisine and the opportunity to engage in Black History trivia, watch a short documentary screening and support local Black-owned businesses.

Zoo Atlanta also has something thrilling lined up for the more nocturnally curious. They're providing a rare Twilight Trek on February 16, where attendees can tour the zoo after hours and observe the behaviors of its nocturnal animals. For those who miss out on this weekend's trek, the next chance won't be until March, according to FOX 5. It's a unique opportunity to see the flip side of the zoo life, so make sure to catch it while you can.

To bring a tech twist into the mix, those attending Hart's show at the Shubert Theatre should prepare for a phone-free experience. According to the theatre's guidelines highlighted on their website, all phones, smart watches, and accessories will be put into Yondr pouches, ensuring that the laughter doesn't get interrupted by pesky screen glows. And for those brave—or forgetful—enough to whip out their gadgets during the show, they'll find themselves on a one-way trip out of the venue. It's an unplugged performance that promises to be as distraction-free as it is entertaining.
