From Harmony Jubilee Website:

Come celebrate a legacy of unity and diversity this September at the Harmony Jubilee at Paulk Park Campground in beautiful Fitzgerald, Georgia.

September 27-28 is your chance to ride in a Hot Air Balloon and see Fitzgerald and the surrounding areas from above! Both tethered and untethered rides will be offered weather permitting.

On Saturday, September 28 join us for a full day of festivities at the Paulk Park RV Park and Camp Ground! Begin your day with a 7 mile, 30-mile or 62 mile bike ride or 5K Color Run & 1-mile Fun Run. Then visit the Fitzgerald- Ben Hill Art Council Artisan Market showcasing quality handmade and homemade goods and wares crafted by local and regional artisans and artists. The Kid Zone will include a bouncy house/slide, rock wall, bungee jump, face painting, train rides and more. Don't miss our pet fashion show that benefits the Fitzgerald-Ben Hill Humane Society! There will be musical entertainment and dancing throughout the day, as well as kayaks on the pond! To finish out the weekend of fun, we will have a concert at the Grand Theatre featuring The Titans of Rock tribute band to Journey and Bon Jovi. The music throughout the festival is brought to you by Grand Concert Promotions.

All of this to celebrate our unique history

Admire the flower-laden plaza parks that center the main streets of one of Georgia's few planned cities. Shop in our artisans market at Paulk Park and unique downtown shops and antiques stores. Tour the brick streets of the historical district filled with diverse architectural styles, materials, and ornamentation unique to Southern Georgia. Dine in one of the oldest downtown buildings and feast on homemade delicacies, enjoy a sumptuous country buffet, freshly made New York-style pizza, international flavors or the barbecue and burgers. Enjoy an art exhibit in the beautifully renovated Carnegie Center. Enjoy a first run movie, a concert or a live theater performance in the beautiful Art Deco style Grand Theatre. Marvel over the colorful Burmese chickens roaming shady lawns and throughout the downtown. Bring your camera and visit the Milton "Buddy" Hopkins Nature Preserve; a 1-mile loop around a grassy wetland area located off of Appomattox Rd in Fitzgerald.
