Feeling blue?
This Saturday is the city's annual Bluesberry Festival, filled with locally grown blueberries, blues artists, food specials and a mini beerfest, all in Historic Downtown Norcross.
From 1 p.m. to 6 p.m., will be having a luau and Cuban pig roast for its second backyard barbecue party of the season. Munch on some local pulled pork with Cuban-Hawaiian style sides, sip on a selection of alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages, and listen to live music.

Other restaurants also will be having all-day chef specials inspired by the blueberry fruit (such as blueberry margaritas and blueberry mojitos), according to a press release from the city. Sample treats at the local shops, too.
At 4 p.m., will host a mini beerfest with concoctions from Monday Night Brewing, Terrapin Beer Company, Red Hare Brewing and SweetWater Brewery (SweetWater Blue, anyone?).
