CRITIC'S PICK: This flashy and splashy cultural celebration, hosted annually on the shores of Lake Lanier, now boasts more than 80 teams and regularly attracts about 8,000 spectators. It’s all about teamwork, athletic prowess, and the rich history of Hong Kong. The Dragon Boat Festivalfeatures a race with teams powered by synchronized strokes, rowing in unison to beating drums, as well as traditional music, dance and martial arts, plus food stalls offering a wide array of delicacies. The hosts invite you to “immerse yourself in the colors, sounds, and tastes of Asian culture and tradition.” — Kevin C. Madigan
