Discover the spirit of the Great Gatsby . . . 

F Scott Fitzgerald was the image-maker of the Jazz Age, setting the tone, fashion and style of this American era.  In 1935 and 1936, Fitzgerald came to The Grove Park Inn for rest and relaxation while his wife, Zelda, was treated in a nearby hospital.  Each year, we salute Fitzgerald, his accomplishments and his association with The Grove Park Inn near the anniversary of his birth in September.

Weekend activities include tours of Fitzgerald's room, cooking demonstrations, chair massages, history tours, a scavenger hunt and live music throughout the resort.  Guests can also learn to dance the Charleston, Gatsby-style, with flappers in the Great Hall.

On this special tribute weekend, we invite you to step back in time with us, as we experience the music, history and literature of a great American writer - and one of our favorite guests - F. Scott Fitzgerald.
