Suwanee Days

SMILE MORE! Suwanee Days celebrates its 25th anniversary on September 25th. Suwanee Days is a fun family day that always starts out with a morning parade and ends with a concert and fireworks in the park. The event will take place at Suwanee’s new Town Center Park. This year’s theme for Suwanee Days is Totally 80’s in celebration of the first Suwanee Days in 1984. There will be over a 100 vendors selling arts, crafts, jewelry and food products. All day long there will be free entertainment by local artists and our very own North Gwinnett High School drum line. There will many events for the children including inflatable rides and interactive games.

Suwanee Days started in May of 1984 as a half day event to show newcomers what the city was about. It was and still is a celebration of community. Its intent was to get people involved in their community and it has certainly done that. In 1990 it was moved to September and is held the third Saturday in September every year.

The evening concerts feature two great county groups. At 7:00 P.M. The Lost Trailers will perform. They have performed all over the county and have opened for stars like Carrie Underwood, Sugarland, and Kenny Chesney. At 8:30 P.M., Ricochet will perform. They were the 1996 Academy of County Music’s Top new vocal group. They had a number one single called “Daddy’s Money”. The evening will be capped off with a great fireworks display at 9:45 P.M. There will be plenty of offsite parking with free shuttles over to Suwanee Town Center for the event. It is always a great time for family fun. Meet your neighbors and come on down to Suwanee Days. We can celebrate our wonderful community together.
