If you’re into music, markets or melons, you’ll find plenty of it in the Upstate this weekend. From tonight’s Beachin’ Fridays in Mauldin to tomorrow’s Melon Fest at Hagood Mill in Pickens, there are lots of things to do.
Despite popular events such as Beachin’ Fridays and the SOOIE Mauldin BBQ Cookoff, the Upstate city at the tip of the Golden Strip has never been a destination. But Mauldin officials believe that will change when its new City Center opens in the summer of 2022.
Bank of America Fall for Greenville, the City of Greenville’s popular downtown street festival, has been canceled for 2020. The City of Mauldin also has cancelled its popular Beachin’ Fridays summer concert series.
Greenville’s annual Wells Fargo Red, White and Blue festival scheduled for July 4 has been canceled due to a significant increase in the number of new COVID-19 cases in the community.
