Inaugural North Charleston Blue Crab Festival Set for April 22nd
The Inaugural North Charleston Blue Crab Festival will be held on April 22nd from 11 am to 5 pm. The event will benefit the Jenkins Orphanage and will take place at the Jenkins Youth & Family Village off Azalea Drive in North Charleston.
Lowcountry crabs will be served by the bucket at the event, but if crabs aren’t your thing, there will be several food trucks on site. The festival will also include live music from The Secrets, art and retail vendors, a live DJ, beer and wine, a kid’s area, and lots of family-friendly fun.
General admission tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door. Kids 12 and under are free. A VIP ticket costs $125 and includes one bucket of crab, complimentary food and beverage, private bathrooms, tented riverfront seating in the heart of the event, and a VIP entrance to avoid the lines.
