We are getting ready for the Spring & Summer Festival Season here at Myrtle Beach on the Cheap!
We’re putting together a list of 2023 festivals for those who like to plan ahead.
Spring officially arrived March 20, 2023.. so, we are looking for festivals and events that happen around that time and after. If you would like your spring or summer festival or event listed on this roundup, please comment below.
Most of the festivals are FREE (or cheap), but we threw in a few popular ones with higher price tags. You can decide whether or not they fit your budget. Keep in mind that FREE admission doesn’t mean everything at the festival is FREE. There may be a fee for some of the activities, and food is almost never FREE.
An * indicates rescheduled event with new date(s).
Make sure you don’t miss any upcoming deals by subscribing to Myrtle Beach on the Cheap’s daily emails (just one a day), and following us on Facebook and Twitter.
Want us to highlight your event or give it a prime spot at the top of this list? Your event will get thousands of additional views from our readers. Email me about sponsoring this post: ads@myrtlebeachonthecheap.com
