they jousted, held tournaments
No they didn't. That was during the Middle Ages and the European Renaissance.
People in the Harlem Renaissance did a lot of partying. They might have gone out to one of the many clubs in Harlem (ex: The Cotton Club, Club Savoy), but these clubs were often filled with white tourists looking for the 'Harlem experience'. It was more likely that they attended 'rent parties' (parties hosted by apartment owners to help pay the rent). Food and cheap liquor were sold to the guests, and the entertainment was usually spontaneous.
