Valdosta Blooms During The 21st Annual Azalea Festival

South Georgia will blossom during the 21st annual Azalea Festival in Valdosta, GA.  The festival activities begin with the VLPRA Azalea 5K Road Race on Saturday, March 13, and an all-day Arts and Crafts show on March 13 and 14

Attendees from all over the Southeast will enjoy one of Valdosta’s most beautiful parks filled with 200 vendors, six-stage areas of entertainment—one of these provided by Wild Adventures Theme Park, a huge food court, a 5K race, and a huge KidZone, the World Famous Disc-Connected k-9’s, inflatable attractions, a children’s train ride, pony rides, a rock wall, the “Falconry Forever” (Birds of Prey) exhibit and demonstrations, a Pet Contest (sponsored by B.A.R.C.) and a whole lot more. Other areas of the park will feature the Paul Bunyan Lumberjack show (back by popular demand!) sponsored by the Langdale Company, a Classic Car and Bike Show on Sunday (sponsored by Dedicated Motorcycle Company), a roaming juggler, and a whole lot more! 

Come celebrate and enjoy all that South GA has to offer, enjoy spending time with others, and usher in Spring in style!  The Azalea Festival is held at Drexel Park (1401 N. Patterson St., across from Valdosta State University at the corner of Brookwood Dr. and Patterson St.) and opens at 10 a.m. each day.  Admission to the park is free.
