(Greensboro, Ga.—April 6, 2024) Take a stroll through the streets of Downtown Greensboro during Southland Jubilee this Saturday, April 20, 2024, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Since 1998, people from all over have gathered the streets of Greensboro to participate in the fun, family-friendly event. There will be a variety of new and returning vendors throughout the streets of downtown Greensboro, along with a blast from the past, as you walk down South Main Street to enjoy the Classic Car Show that is put on each year by the Georgia Classic Cruisers.
Southland Jubilee has developed the reputation across the region as a quality heritage arts festival and is unlike any of its kind. Along with exposing visitors to the charm of Greensboro and providing attendees with a full day of fun, Southland Jubilee is known for bringing the entire community together.
In addition to the handmade arts and crafts vendors, the younger attendees will enjoy a fun time in the Children’s Area. This area will include a spider-jump, trackless train rides and kids games.
While in town, enjoy touring our local churches and museums. Multiple historic churches will open their sanctuary for tours. Visit First Presbyterian Church, First Methodist Church Greensboro-Lake Oconee, and First Baptist Church for sanctuary tours. Also visit the Greene County History Museum and the African American Museum during the Jubilee to see their displays.
The Greene County Ag Area, Sponsored by Farm Bureau and 4-H, will allow guests to interact with farm animals from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Also stop by their bake sale for some delicious treats made by local 4-H students.
Walking down South Main Street is a sight to all, whether you know a lot about classic cars or nothing at all, it is something that many people tend to enjoy. You can go up and talk to the people who own the cars, take tons of pictures, and ask members from the local car club questions that you may have regarding classic cruisers. You can find all kinds of cars that have been remodeled from the 50s, 60s, and 70s including Camaros, Corvettes, Chevelles and GTOs. If you have a classic car you want to display, registration in only $20. Drive to South Main Street, and display your hot rod, rat rod, classic and vintage cars for all the festival goers to enjoy.
“Southland Jubilee is the ‘Everything Festival’,” said Kendrick Ward, Southland Jubilee Chair. “Our festival has something for every age and is fun for the whole family.”
Come for the day and stay for the night. The festival may end at 4pm, BUT you can see an amazing show at Oconee Brewing Company.
Whether it is the arts and crafts, classic cars, heritage demonstrations, children’s activities, the agricultural exhibit or your favorite festival foods, attendees will find something that they can enjoy every year at the award-winning festival.

The Jazz Legacy Project: Nat King Cole, Unforgettable
After building a successful career as a pianist, Cole's decision to sing a song on a gig -and then later a handshake agreement with piano great Oscar Peterson - sparked a meteroric rise to becoming the most popular musical group for years. His instantly recognizable voice is associated with iconic versions of Unforgettable, Route 66, and The Christmas Song.
Featuring guest vocalist Cleveland P. Jones.
The Jazz Legacy Project Series
What is it?
Each program is roughly 90 minutes, with the goal of bringing the casual jazz listener inside the minds and music of the most influential and interesting American musicians of all time. These are NOT tribute concerts in the sense that the musicians are trying to recreate the original performances, but instead to celebrate the essence and accomplishments of the particular artist.
