The Thomson-McDuffie Government Complex grounds will host a variety of merchants, community organizations, local businesses, crafters, artists, health & wellness services, jewelry, and more.

The Thomson McDuffie Rec Dept. will host a Pink Ribbon walk at 8:30 am until 10:00 am to kick off this event.  

Come with an appetite as the Camellia City Festival has a variety of culinary delights, along with live music and entertainment provided throughout the day. Bring your chairs or blankets to sit on the lawn to watch the shows.

“The Camellia City Festival is the perfect place for people new and not-so-new to the area to discover the amazing things our community has to offer,” Debbie Jones, previous executive director of the Thomson-McDuffie Chamber of Commerce. “We are very fortunate to have a dedicated team of volunteers to help showcase the best of our community.”
