Where it all happens
Almost everything sits inside the City of Myrtle Beach, in a handful of walkable districts. Pick a district and you can usually park once and stay all day.
The Boardwalk & Plyler Park
The oceanfront stretch. Trick-or-treat trails, the tree lighting, beach carols, busking corridors and the Sun Fun parade all happen here.
The Market Common
A walkable district of shops, restaurants and green space around Grand Park and Valor Park. Most of the big lawn festivals live here.
Myrtle Beach Convention Center
Indoors and air-conditioned, which matters in January and August alike.
Chapin Park & the beach itself
Garden-scale family festivals, the pumpkin patch, the solstice bazaar and sunrise on the sand.
