Fall for Greenville 2025

Fall for Greenville is an annual, October festival of music, food and drink that takes place in downtown Greenville, SC. As a music festival, it has flown somewhat under the radar, but, as an Autumn outdoor party, it has established itself as one of the biggest events in the Southeast, attracting north of 150,000 attendees over its 3 October days (plus Thursday kickoff concerts). It began in 1982, when Greenville was just beginning the downtown revival that has turned it into a regional tourist destination, and now takes place along Main Street between North and River Streets with multiple stages hosting a wide variety of musical artists (as well as culinary demonstrations). Genres represented run the gamut: rock, country, bluegrass, pop, soul/r&b, hip-hop, blues and jazz. Most of the acts are local or regional, and this is deliberate as this is a city-run event that seeks to provide opportunities for local artists, but recent lineups feature more and more names recognizable to non-locals.
