For the past 30 years, live music and family fun have been at the forefront of Decatur Celebration. This year is no exception, with a four-day schedule that is bigger and better than ever. The musical lineup is massive and features a long list of headliners – such as Blackberry Smoke, Lonestar, Blues Traveler, Vanilla Ice, Deana Carter, Moriah Peters, Kool and the Gang, En Vogue and Unspoken – plus other regional and national acts spanning 10 stages of music and entertainment. Other attractions include the Razzle Dazzle Goodtimes Parade on Saturday at 10 a.m., a bags tournament, a hot dog-eating contest, the King BMX stunt show, an adorable baby contest, carnival rides, shopping and food vendors, a kids’ block and so much more.
