A reminder that Picnic in the Park will be held this Sunday, Oct. 6, in Forsyth Park featuring the Savannah Philharmonic. One of Savannah’s most beloved traditions, the theme of this year’s Picnic in the Park is “Celebrate the Arts.” Picnickers are encouraged to incorporate the visual arts, music, theater, literature, film and dance into their picnics. Those who enter the picnic contest will compete to win an assortment of prizes.

Picnic Contest registration begins at 4 p.m., with judging beginning at 5 p.m. The concert program starts at 7:15 p.m.

If it is raining or appears to be a strong chance of rain for 7:15 p.m., Picnic in the Park will be moved to the Trustees Theater on Broughton Street for a free concert with the Savannah Philharmonic. Please watch for announcements Sunday afternoon.

Picnic in the Park is a production of the City of Savannah, with major support from Parker’s, media sponsor WSAV and Picnic Contest host the Savannah Area Board of Realtors.
