As the sun rises over Columbia, the excitement in the air is palpable. After all, this weekend marks the return of a beloved local tradition—the Palmetto Peanut Boil! Celebrating its 17th year, this outdoor festival will take place on September 28, and it’s set to be a fantastic day filled with family fun, delicious food, and a sense of community.
If you’ve never been to the Palmetto Peanut Boil, get ready for a treat! This event has come a long way from its humble backyard beginnings, now attracting thousands from across the Midlands. This year’s festival promises to spotlight the boiled peanut, which, let’s face it, is practically South Carolina’s official snack—and for good reason!
The festival is not just a food lover’s paradise; it also offers a chance to witness some fierce competition! Local teams will be showcasing their culinary skills as they vie for the coveted title of Best Boiled Peanut in South Carolina. Grab your taste buds and prepare to sample unique flavors and recipes from some of the best cooks in the area. Who knows? You might just find your new favorite way to enjoy boiled peanuts!
The Palmetto Peanut Boil isn’t just about peanuts. It’s a joyous occasion for everyone—bring the whole family! With live music, food stalls featuring various treats, and refreshing beverages, there’s plenty to keep everyone entertained. And let’s not forget about our four-legged friends; leashed pets are more than welcome to join in the fun!
This year’s music lineup is another reason to cheer. Expect to hear some great tunes throughout the day, starting with DJ VooDoo Child spinning from 12 PM to 2 PM. Then, get ready to tap your feet to Whiskey Tango Revue from 2:15 PM to 4 PM, followed by Ashes of Old Ways closing out the event from 4:15 PM to 6 PM. Good vibes, good music, and great food—what more could you want?
The efforts of Animal Mission and its nurturing supporters are helping the city move towards its ambitious goal of becoming a No-Kill Community by 2025. By attending the Palmetto Peanut Boil, you’re not just having a great time—you’re also contributing to this noble cause. It’s a win-win!
As luck would have it, the weather for Saturday looks promising too! Expect a bit of rain early in the day, but don’t worry; sunshine is on the way with a high around 89°F. So, grab your sunscreen and prepare for a day of fun! The light winds will just add a nice breeze to the festivities, making it feel even more enjoyable.
