Right up there with Atlanta, GA, our beloved Greenville, SC, is one of the “basketball capitols of the South.” Cheer on our teams during the SEC Women’s Basketball Tournament this weekend at the Bon Secours Wellness Arena. From Wednesday, March 4th- Sunday, March 8th, individuals can attend games in the first round, second round, quarterfinals, semifinals, and championship. Ticket prices vary, but they start at $20. It will be an electric and fun series of games, so come ready to cheer!
Odds are that you have heard songs from the Eli Young Band on the radio, even if you didn’t know it was them. Their four time platinum hit “Crazy Girl” was all the rage in the 2010’s. This 25-year-old band is stopping in Greenville and performing with Lanco on their Call You A Friend Tour this Thursday, March 5th. There’s nothing like a country song to get you in the feels. Tickets start at $38.50.
In 1950, C.S. Lewis introduced the world to a magical realm involving a lion, a witch, and a wardrobe. The Logos Theatre is performing its own adaptation of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe from 2/18-3/28. In the play, the Penvensie siblings must fight to free the realm of Narnia from an eternal winter and evil queen, by following the Lion King. Tickets start at $67.50. Whether you’re going out solo, with family, or with friends, it’s sure to be a pleasant viewing experience.
Every year, individuals in India celebrate the Spring festival Holi by throwing colorful powder into the air. And this year, you’re invited to one! Join from 11am-2pm at the Vedic Center in Mauldin for a jolly block party. Lunch will also be served. Tickets are $15 for non members above 11. Be sure to bring a blanket to cover your car seat or a change of clothes; it’s going to be a beautiful, symbolic mess.
Out of all the hiking trails around Greenville, SC, one is vastly superior: Table Rock. There is nothing like reaching the pinnacle of Table Rock, after a 16,000 ft. elevation change. And now, you can be motivated to reach the top more than ever, by joining the Conquer the Rock Trail Run. This Saturday, there will be two races, a Bear Crawl 25K and a Foothills 50K. Tickets are $60. Both races will challenge you to keep going, inspiring you to reach for new heights.
