Sun Fun Festival is Coming Back This Summer

The Sun Fun Festival is coming back to Myrtle Beach this summer.

The Sun Fun Festival first began in the 1950s and has been a long-standing festival in the Grand Strand area. However, the festival endured a five year hiatus from 2011 and 2016 and was cancelled last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Myrtle Beach City Council recently approved a permit for the festival to come back this summer.

This year’s festival will be the 65th event of it’s kind and take place from June 4 to June 6 at various locations around Myrtle Beach including Plyler Park and the boardwalk. Guests will be able to enjoy live music, vendors and various performers during the event, which is free for the public.

Some of the highlights of this year’s event include music from Swingin’ Medallions and Too Much Sylvia, a sand sculpture competition and a Sun Fun parade.

Carolina Country Music Festival Postponed Until June 2021

In an effort to protect the health and safety of concert-goers, artists and staff, the Carolina Country Music Festival has made the difficult decision to postpone the highly anticipated festival until June 2021. The new dates for the festival will be June 10-13, 2021. 

The Myrtle Beach based festival typically attracts thousands of country music fans to the area, all of whom are eager to see their favorite musicians perform.

The headliners for the 2021 festival will stay the same. Concert-goers will still be able to see Luke Combs, Eric Church, Darius Rucker and Jake Owen live in concert come June.

For individuals who already purchased tickets to the 2020 festival, their tickets will automatically rollover to the 2021 festival. 

In a statement on the postponement of the festival, the Carolina Country Music Festival said, “Let’s just say it. 2020 sucks. We were all looking forward to partying together on the beach with these amazing artists (our best lineup yet!) and yet again, another event has been stripped from ALL our calendars.“
