Greenville, a flourishing city in South Carolina, is set to celebrate the 20th anniversary of its esteemed Falls Park on September 8, 2024. The commemoration promises to be a spectacular event, embodying the essence of the park’s importance to the local area and those who have enjoyed its natural beauty over the past two decades.

Located in the city’s downtown area, Falls Park is a 32-acre green space that resonates with residents and visitors alike. The park offers an unparallelled view of the Reedy River Falls and the iconic Liberty Bridge, a symbol of Greenville’s innovative spirit and love for cultural heritage. Throughout the year and across every season, the Falls Park has reliably provided a lush, urban sanctuary for Greenville’s inhabitants.

The Anniversary Celebrations

The celebratory event will start at 2:30 p.m. on September 8, with Greenville City Mayor Knox White slated to kick things off with an opening address. A line-up of esteemed speakers will follow, including the celebrated architect of Liberty Bridge, Miguel Rosales, and Sallie Perrin White, president of the Carolina Foothills Garden Club.

Attendees are invited to pack picnic baskets or indulge in the diverse culinary delights on offer from the varied food trucks on-site. The event will feature a plethora of activities, ensuring a fun-filled outing for the entire family. Musical reverberations and dramatic spectacles can be expected to fill the park, with live performances by the South Carolina Governor’s School for Arts and Humanities and the Upstate Shakespeare Festival.

In addition to the gastronomic and entertainment offerings, attendees can also bring a piece of the park home. Exclusive anniversary merchandise, artfully crafted by Dapper Ink, will also be available for purchase at the event.

Looking Ahead

As Greenville gears up to celebrate Falls Park’s monumental milestone, the priceless role that the park plays in the life of the community is evident.
