The annual Sea & Sand Festival, Folly's longest-running festival, returns to Folly Beach with a weekend full of family-friendly events. The Sea & Sand weekend will be returning for its 33rd year! It will include an artisan street closure event and some healthy competition in the sand on Sunday.

Center Street will be closed on "Salty Saturday" and taken over by Folly vendors, restaurants, and bars. The street closure event will take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and feature local bands, 80+ Folly art, craft, and fashion vendors, and a robust kid area. Sunday will feature a Sand Sculpture Competition starting at 10 a.m. on the beachfront of the Tides.

The streets will close at 7 am, and reopen at 5:30pm, but they are open to the public between 10am and 4pm. Admission is $10 in advance [and $15 at the door], but it is free for Folly residents (must show a valid driver's license), and kids 12 and under are free.

Surfboard Painting Contest: Compete in the live surfboard painting competition on Saturday! Boards will be featured as an art installation around Folly Beach after Salty Saturday! Sign up now.

Sand Sculpting Competition: Join us in the sand on Sunday for the ultimate Sand Sculpting Competition! Sign up now.

Live Music: Sea & Sand will have two (3) stages showcasing Folly musicians. Additional details regarding the lineup are coming soon!
