The Rotary Club of Peachtree City and Peachtree City Tourism are joining forces this fall to present a bigger and better festival for all to enjoy on September 25 at Drake Field. This will be the 4th annual Dragon Boat Races and International Fest and its’ unique flavor and appeal has resulted in dramatic growth in popularity each year.

This year Peachtree City Tourism promises to present an expanded food court, kids corner and more international displays and exhibits, as well as artisans specializing in international crafts. According to Executive Director Nancy Price, “We are looking for food and craft vendors with an international flair”. Applications for the International Fest can be obtained at the Visitors Center on McIntosh Trail, or by calling 678-216-0282.

The main stage for the festival will feature entertainment from around the world, and Peachtree City Tourism is currently searching for acts that will fit the bill. Contact the Visitors’ Center if you are interested or email nprice@visitpeachtreecity.com .

The Rotary Club of Peachtree City is bringing back the popular Dragon Boat Races again this year and expects to sell out the limited number of team spots.
