the northwest corner of South Carolina, Greenville's vibrant community
welcomes visitors to experience breathtaking views and Southern charm

Greenville's got it! With great venues like the Peace Center for Performing Arts and the BI-LO Center,
as well as quaint community theaters, you're sure to find Greenville festivals and events to suit your fancy. Throughout
the year, the Upstate welcomes nationally known artists to take the stage; however, Greenville also
takes great pride in showcasing our local musicians at various special events, festivals and locales.
Visual and performing arts play an enormous role in Greenville's thriving community, and we are proud
to highlight our talent to visitors at every opportunity.
Greenville attractions are held at a number of venues

historic waterfall in our vibrant downtown. Visit our museums,
galleries, the Greenville Zoo and more. And
throughout the Upcountry, there are more than 500 historic sites as

offers performing arts venues with a full calendar of plays and
concerts throughout the year. The most difficult decision in planning
your visit will be where to begin!
Whether you're a player or a fan, you'll enjoy the sporting life in and
around Greenville. Catch tomorrow's baseball stars on the Greenville

downtown WestEnd Field, or head out to one of our region's universities
and colleges to show your collegiate support for our local teams.
Whatever your age, there is plenty of Greenville recreation; and for the true
outdoorsman, our city, county and state parks provide the perfect
setting for biking, hiking, boating, fishing and camping. The Blue
Ridge Mountains are more than a stunning backdrop to Greenville. Get
