Entertainment

Whether you're looking for a fun family outing, a relaxing nature stroll, or a historical exploration of art, Forsyth County has something for everyone.

The School Street Playhouse

The School Street Playhouse is located in the 1923 Cumming Public School, a structure named to the National Register in 2000. A property of the City of Cumming, it also houses the Historical Society of Forsyth County. The Playhouse offers visitors a look into Cumming's history.

Stars and Strikes is the place to go for a night of bowling, arcade games, laser tag and bumper cars. Plan a fun night for friends and family.
The Cumming Fairgrounds offers seasonal fun for the family. In October the Cumming Country Fair and Festival brings the community together for wild rides and tasty food. Rodeos, shows and other festivals keep the fairgrounds hopping in the fall and winter.

Georgia Glamping

Georgia Glamping combines the need for modern comfort with a desire to be as close to nature as possible. With waterfront views and large bell tents, you will experience Lake Lanier in a way you never have before. You can enjoy nature with your family, loved ones, or have a few nights to yourself, and you'll never miss the amenities that you would have with a traditional hotel because, with Georgia Glamping, they're included. Spend the evening getting out on the lake, grilling up dinner, and getting back in touch with the great outdoors before sleeping in a real bed with full linens and waking up to some hot coffee!

Balloons Over Georgia

This locally owned and operated business offers residents and visitors the chance to see the area from a sky high view. Balloons Over Georgia allows participants to see the North Georgia scenery like never before, and really take in our community’s beautiful sites. Up in the air, you will see Lake Lanier, Stone Mountain, Kennesaw Mountain, the Atlanta skyline, and the Blue Ridge and Appalachian mountain ranges from a new and exhilarating perspective. While hot air balloon rides make wonderful gifts for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, and holidays, it doesn’t have to be a special occasion to take a ride. This is a unique, adventurous activity for any day or season, and it will never disappoint!
