Charleston Home + Outdoor Living Festival
For the sixth year in a row, Charleston Home + Design Magazine is hosting a high-end home show on Daniel Island, but this year is going to be a little different. Most notable is the new name - The Charleston Home + Outdoor Living Festival - which better reflects some of the exciting new additions to the event. In addition to the nearly 100 local A-list contractors, this year’s revamped gathering will offer visitors live music, a “Crafts on the Courts” Craft Beer Festival, delicious food grilled “backyard style” on Big Green Eggs, and much more.
The Charleston Home + Outdoor Living Festival will run Saturday and Sunday, April 22-23 at the Volvo Car Stadium (formerly Family Circle Stadium) on Daniel Island. People of all ages will find something to entertain and inform them at this year’s festival, which will also include a luxury home tour of Daniel Island properties. As part of the “Crafts on the Courts” Craft Beer Festival, visitors can purchase a $25 “Craft Beer Passport” to sample over a dozen local and regional craft beers that will be paired with Big Green Egg-prepared tacos and sliders. There will also be a special kids’ zone, where parents can drop off children to be supervised and entertained with crafts by Annie’s Nannies for a small fee. For a list of all the event’s activities, visit www.danielislandhomeshow.com.
