The 70th annual Beaufort Water Festival is underway at Henry C. Chambers Waterfront Park in Beaufort County, featuring daytime arts-and-crafts markets and evening music and community events, the program host said.
Chloe G., host of BCTV's Beaufort County news headlines, said tonight is Caribbean Night with headliner "Reggae Locks," Wednesday is the talent show, Thursday the Lowcountry supper, and Friday includes a daytime meet-and-greet with airshow pilots at the Beaufort Executive Airport and the bedrace at Bay and Harrington. The weekend closes with Rock in the River, an 18-and-older event that lists Chris Jones as the opening performer for the Hot Red Chili Peppers.
A full daily schedule and ticket information are available through the festival website, the host said. Organizers promote arts and cultural vendors, family-friendly daytime activities and after-dark music programming to draw residents and visitors.
The festival's mix of free daytime programming and ticketed evening shows means attendees should check the published schedule for age limits and specific event locations around the waterfront park. Organizers also publicize related off-site activities such as the airshow meet-and-greet at the Beaufort Executive Airport.
