10Best's Greenville Events
-- Elizabeth Baxley, 10Best Travel Editor
Greenville's inviting public spaces and creative spirit provide a perfect atmosphere for community events. Visit Main Street on a weekend night and you're likely to hear live jams in the street, thanks to several outdoor summer concert series. Met with enthusiasm, these shows delight locals who love to linger in the district and enjoy cold beers with the night's entertainment. Several other popular festivals have helped established the downtown district as a hub of arts and entertainment. At Fall for Greenville, locals get to sample food and drink from some of the district's top eateries and bars and hear headline bands, while Art in the Park allows visitors to admire and purchase the work of area artists. Holiday happenings attract a great turnout, from fireworks on the 4th of July to fun St. Patrick's Day celebrations.
