LOVE AN INSIDE SCOOP?
Check out The Local 5
Whether you’re visiting for the first time or have spent years in the Greenville area, The Local 5 Newsletter is your one stop destination to find out what you don’t want to miss this weekend in the Upstate.
Every Thursday, we will highlight our ‘top 5 musts’ that will include everything from restaurants, activities, parks, concerts and festivals that are all right here in beautiful Greenville, SC.

You may know and love the story of Little Women, a coming-of-age tale starring Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy March. In the book by Louisa May Alcott, these heroines are flawed, and therefore, relatable. There’s growth, loss, and change. Whether you’ve read it or not, the musical version performing at the Mauldin Cultural Center this weekend is sure to be a spellbinding interpretation. Tickets are $25.
Who doesn’t love a ball? If you are over 50, you’re invited to the annual Harvest Ball this Friday night from 7-10pm. Tickets are only $17 per person. The Greenville County Senior Programs will be hosting an intentional night of food & fellowship. Come with friends or make friends at the event!


K-pop is all the rage these days. K-pop, which stands for Korean popular music, is a mix of pop, hip-hop, R&B, and electronic, and therefore, makes for a pretty fun party. Check out a free K-pop party at Camperdown Plaza this Friday night from 6-10pm. Shop from local vendors and watch live performances while wandering downtown Greenville. Admission is free!
What sets the movie How to Train Your Dragon apart? For me, it’s the score. There’s a reason John Powell’s score was nominated for an Academy Award-- it really captures the feeling of flying. Join hiccup and toothless in their Viking world, accompanied by a live performance by the Greenville Symphony. Tickets start at $82.50. Meet the only upside of Berk, the pets!


The Traveler’s Rest Beer, Wine, & Cider festival is back, and this year, they’re going all out. The Community Tap is adding a wine list, in addition to craft beers and hard ciders. Each ticket also includes small appetizers and live entertainment. Tickets are $78.41. Be sure to pack your folding chair or blanket, so you can stretch out and relax. After all, it’s called Traveler’s Rest for a reason.
