Untitled - Vidalia Area CVB
The Vidalia Area can host meetings,
weddings, reunions, and corporate seminars,
ranging from 10 people to more than 800.
Overview
When you are looking for the right venue to hold your next meeting, conference,
reunion, wedding, or other special event, you may be surprised at the number and
variety of state-of-the-art facilities here in the Southeast Georgia area around Vidalia.
The Vidalia Area offers the capacity,
the convenient location, and the ideal
price to satisfy the needs of almost any
meeting, from groups of 10 to more
than 800. More than 30 unique venues
in Lyons, Mount Vernon, Uvalda, and
Vidalia all have one thing in common—
the warmth and hospitality for which the
Vidalia Area is known.
The Vidalia Area is equipped to
handle events as varied as weddings and
reunions, corporate seminars, and board
retreats. State-of-the-art technology and
full-service catering are available for those
who need them.
Before, during or after the meeting,
there are plenty of activities and
attractions to catch and hold your
interest, from paddling down the
Altamaha River to viewing first edition,
hand-colored Audubon prints; from
hunting quail to sampling delicious
Vidalia Onion dishes.
The Vidalia Area is centrally located
between Savannah and Macon, Ga.,
—about 90 miles from each. For those
912-538-TOUR

traveling from Atlanta or Columbus, Ga.,
the trip is only a 3-hour drive. There are
three Vidalia exits off Interstate 16—exits
67, 84, and 90. From these exits, U.S.
Hwy. 1, GA 297, or GA 15/29 will bring
you into Vidalia. For those traveling
from South Georgia, U.S. 1, U.S. 280, GA
15/29, GA 130, and GA 178 will bring
you into Vidalia or Lyons.

Attractions
Make your first stop the Vidalia Area Convention and Visitors Bureau, located within
the same building as the Vidalia Onion Museum. Our friendly staff will tell you
everything you want to know about attractions, activities, shopping, and dining.
Dining—Vidalia and its
surrounding towns have many quality
and diverse restaurants and eateries
usually only associated with bigger
cities, from upscale and elegant to
down-home Southern cooking, with
a little international flair thrown in
for good measure. Fresh is the word
here, from straight-off-the-farm Vidalia
Onions and other produce, quail from
area plantations, and nightly seafood
that was pulled from the Atlantic
Ocean only that morning.
Outdoor Adventure—The Vidalia
Area has outdoor adventure in
abundance. With three rivers running
through the area—the Altamaha,
the Ocmulgee, and the Ogeechee—
opportunities to paddle, fish, and
camp are widely available. Cyclists
can bike all or part of the
27-mile, billboard-free
Yamassee Bicycle Trail
through gorgeous
South Georgia
countryside.
Golfers can hone their skills at two
championship 18-hole courses.
Hunters will enjoy our four quail
preserves and their full-service
experiences. If the kids are along (or
even if they’re not), a visit to Buckhorn
Creek Ranch, a 250-acre exotic animal
farm, will having you “oohing” as the
deer eat right from your hands. And,
if you’re curious about where the food
in your local grocery store comes from,
we have farm, apiary (honey bees),
and ranch tours that will show you
what it’s like to live here.
Culture—From researching family
roots at one of the largest genealogical
libraries in the Southeast to enjoying
a 200-piece collection of 20th century
art; from delighting in the annual
“Tales from the Altamaha” folk life
play to thrilling to a performance
of the Shantz pipe organ and 9-foot
Yamaha Concert Grand piano in Saliba
Chapel at Brewton-Parker College, the
Vidalia Area has some distinctive and
refined cultural opportunities.

Shopping—The downtown
shopping districts of Vidalia and Lyons
will delight those seeking a shopping
experience that is off the beaten path—
antique shops, craft boutiques, even a
glass-blower’s shop.
Relaxation—The Vidalia Area offers
its share of pampering opportunities
from hot stone massage to pedicures
to yoga classes.
Festivals—Celebrations are
enthusiastic affairs in Vidalia. Our
premier event is the annual Vidalia
Onion Festival, 3 days in April chock
full of parades, pageants, arts and
crafts, tournaments, theatre, and
entertainment. In addition to the
Vidalia Onion Festival, we celebrate
throughout the year with Plowdays,
the Soapbox Derby, the Sweet
Onion Century, Uvalda’s Ol’ Time
Farm Festival, Downtown Vidalia’s
Fall Festival, the Real Squeal Lyons
BBQ and Bluegrass Festival, and
our community’s many holiday
celebrations and pageants.
