SOOIE., Mauldin’s 10th Annual BBQ Festival, is set for Sept, 18-19 at Mauldin Cultural Center, featuring more than 25 participants from across the Southeast competing in a BBQ Cook-off judged by the SC Barbeque Association.
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.
