Creative specialty cocktails and a full menu of delicious “small bites” are the perfect accompaniment to the jazz stylings of eclectic musicians from all over the South. Auburn CityFest - At Auburn CityFest you will enjoy spectacular artists and exhibitors but also delicious food, family-oriented entertainment, and a variety of interactive activities for the kid in all of us. Laughter, music and good ole family fun make Auburn CityFest a great day in the park. 6 War Eagle - It is one of the most iconic moments in all of college football: Jordan-Hare’s capacity crowd of almost 90,000 rumbling in unison as a Golden Eagle is released to free-fly in circles around the stadium, eventually landing mid-field on its leathery pseudo-prey. 7 8 On the Tracks - On a beautiful spring and fall evening in the heart of downtown Opelika along historic Railroad Avenue, the area’s finest restauranteurs offer a delicious selection of dinner entrées while wouldbe oenophiles sample over 20 selections of eclectic, seasonally relevant wines. 9 Dale Chihuly chandelier - The focal point for the entry of the Jule Collins Smith Museum of Fine Art at Auburn University, Chihuly’s Amber Luster is a three tiered masterpiece of more than 600 individual pieces of hand-blown glass. Toomer’s lemonade - Handmade to order, this tart and tangy concoction is the hallmark of Toomer’s Drugstore, a beloved Auburn icon and the only business that has occupied this historic corner since 1896. 10 Christmas in Downtown Opelika - See the historic Victorian homes of Opelika transformed into an Old World Christmas wonderland. Blocks of turn-of-the-century homes are adorned with life-size Santas, angels, toys, teddy bears, carousel horses and other holiday figures. www.aotourism.com 13
