Celebrate the coastal charm of Folly Beach at the 34th Annual Sea & Sand Festival, the island's longest-running community tradition. Returning on February 21 and 22, 2026, the festival kicks off with Salty Saturday, where Center Street is transformed into a pedestrian-only marketplace featuring over 80 local artisans, crafters, and food vendors.
The day is packed with energy, boasting three stages of live music from Folly’s favorite musicians, a live surfboard painting competition, and a massive Sea and Sand Circus kids' area complete with aerial performers and inflatables. The festivities move to the shore on Sunday for the ultimate Sand Sculpting Competition on the beachfront. Whether you're browsing unique island fashions or competing for glory in the sand, this weekend captures the quirky and vibrant spirit of the Edge of America.
