Camellia City Fest returns for 11th year

Downtown Greenville will come alive with color, creativity, and community spirit as the 11th annual Camellia City Fest kicks off, drawing thousands to the heart of the city for one of the area’s most anticipated events.

Stretching from First Presbyterian Church to the Post Office, the streets will be lined with a wide variety of vendors offering everything from handmade arts and crafts, custom woodwork, home and lawn décor, boutique apparel, and accessories to local pastries, jams, jellies, and seasonings.

Food trucks, lawn games, face painting, and a petting zoo will also be part of the family-friendly festivities.

“This event is a true showcase of the creativity and spirit of our community,” said Tracy Salter, Executive Director of the Greenville Area Chamber of Commerce.

She added, “From First Presbyterian Church to the Post Office, the streets will be filled with incredible vendors, delicious food, and fun for all ages.

“Camellia City Fest is a wonderful opportunity for our local businesses and restaurants to experience an influx of customers—not just from right here at home, but from visitors across the region.”

Now in its 11th year, Camellia City Fest has grown into a major weekend for Greenville, offering a boost to the local economy and spotlighting the charm of the Camellia City.

Vendor applications are still being accepted through Aug. 21.
