"Experience South Carolina Fest" will excite the senses & highlight the rich diversity of the music, food, people and the culture of South Carolina. The festival will come alive with the sounds of South Carolina from the Beach Music that will evoke a summer night's shagging at the beach to R&B representing the region as well as gospel music. Confirmed entertainment at the festival will include Plair All Stars and Front Line. In addition, attendees can enjoy the tastes of South Carolina's regional cuisine representing key areas of the State. Fried fish, barbecue, fried chicken and turkey, sausage gumbo, po' boy sandwiches, fried pickles, corn bread, peach cobbler, red velvet cake and assorted other southern specialties are all on the menu along with South Carolina craft beers. And there will be plenty of activities for children at the Kidz Zone with inflatables.

Local farmers will sell their produce and local artisans will be selling their handmade art & crafts at The Old Town Market.

The festival will also feature a Literary Corner to showcase some of South Carolina's own authors. Attendees will be able to meet local authors, purchase signed copies of books, and learn more about South Carolina's rich literary heritage.

The festival is free to the public and everyone can take part in celebrating South Carolina in the beautiful Old Town District of Rock Hill.
