2015 Flowertown Festival
Visit Summerville in the Spring and it�s easy to see how the town earned the nickname �Flowertown� so many years ago.� Come March, azaleas burst into bloom, painting the Lowcountry in shades of salmon pink, gentle white, and pale violet.� Wisteria begins to drape porch fronts in sheets of purple, and delicate camellias, a specialty at Magnolia Plantation in particular, dot the landscape.
So it is more than fitting that Summerville�s largest and most celebrated event is named after one of the town�s most stunning features � The Flowertown Festival.
Every spring Summerville ushers in the warmer weather � and all the splendor that come with it � with a 3-day festival. One of the largest arts and crafts festivals in the Southeast, The Flowertown Festival is set in lush Azalea Park and offers a delight of arts and crafts, food from the Lowcountry�s best restaurants, and entertainment for all ages.
Consistently ranked as one of the Top 20 events in the Southeast by the Southeast Tourism Society, this year�s festival features:
- Over 200 jury-selected artists from throughout the country who display their work for sale
- Delicious foods from restaurants at The Taste
- Fun activities and rides for children at the Children�s Jubilee
- Farmer’s Market (Saturday only)
- NEW! KidsFest (Saturday only) – Blooming Artists of the Flowertown Festival
- Free admission & Free Parking?
The festival�s mission is to raise funds for the Summerville Family YMCA. Funds are used to continue the organization�s philanthropic mission of helping families in need.
The 2015 Flowertown Festival is this weekend. Hope to see you there!
