One of the sure signs that spring is upon us here in the Metro Charleston SC area is the blossoming of the many azalea flowers and the festival that celebrates this - The Flowertown Festival. The Flowertown Festival is held every year in Summerville, SC and has been for nearly 40 years. The festival was started to raise money for the local YWCO (Young Women's Christian Organization). The festival has expanded from its humble beginning back in 1973 to a large and much anticipated event that is now considered among the top 20 events in the southeast. Today the festival is sponsored by the Summerville chapter of the YMCA and features games, rides, food, crafts, and other various booths.
This year the festival will begin on Friday April 1, 2011 with hours of 9am-5pm. The festival will continue on Saturday from 9am-5pm and then conclude on Sunday with hours of 9am-4pm. The Flowertown festival is held on South Main Street in downtown Summerville and Azalea Park. The street is closed to traffic during that time.
