What’s the best way to celebrate F. Scott Fitzgerald’s birthday? Party like Fitzgerald would party.

Step back in time to the Roaring ‘20s at The Omni Grove Park Inn’s Fitzgerald Weekend , happening Friday, Sept. 22-Sunday, Sept. 24. The Gatsby-era weekend kicks off on Friday with the Gin & Jazz Social — a classy evening where 1920s attire is encouraged and guests enjoy small plates, cocktails, games + live music by the Firecracker Jazz Band.

To fully immerse yourself in the Fitzgerald vibes, make a weekend of it with:

  • Tickets to the Gin & Jazz Social on Friday, Sept. 22 (ages 21+ only)
  • A Roaring ‘20s Sunday Brunch at Blue Ridge Restaurant with live music from Russ Wilson (reservations recommended)
  • Guided tours of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s guest rooms (yes, where he really stayed)

Not staying for the weekend? Ashevillians are welcomed to join the fun by purchasing a single-evening ticket to the Gin & Jazz Social.
