Blairsville will be the official start of Stage 6 of the Tour de Georgia presented by AT&T premier cycling race, which has earned the reputation as a major warm up to the renowned Tour de France event. An expected tour of 15 teams of world class cyclists will wind their way through this majestic mountain town as they journey to what has become known as the signature “Queen Climb”-the grueling race to the summit of nearby Brasstown Bald Mountain- the highest peak in Georgia.
On Friday, April 25th, downtown Blairsville will host “The Night Before The Climb”, an event to capture some of the excitement of the next day’s race, featuring outdoor dining, live music, official Tour merchandise and team autograph sessions. The event will be held from 6:00pm-9:00pm in the Seasons Inn Plaza, across from the historic Union County Courthouse and will be free to the public.
Sponsored by the Downtown Development Authority, Blairsville-Union County Chamber of Commerce and Seasons Inn.
