Charleston County Park & Recreation Commission

The Charleston County Parks Foundation identifies community needs, establishes projects, generates funding, and provides ongoing maintenance and support to the projects so that the community can have access to and benefit from the Charleston County Park & Recreation Commission’s facilities, programs, and services.

Dust off your dancing shoes and get ready for summer and Shaggin’ on the Pier! Live music will fill the air with local bands performing throughout the season at the Mount Pleasant Pier. Gates open at 7:00pm and the music begins at 8:00pm. All ages are invited to let loose, breathe in the ocean breeze and dance the night away under the stars.

Charleston County Parks’ Inclusive Superhero Dance Party returns to Mount Pleasant this spring! This event will be held at the Town of Mt. Pleasant's Cooper River Room (99 Harry Hallman Jr. Blvd. Mt. Pleasant, SC 29464).

Bringing Louisiana to the Lowcountry, the Lowcountry Cajun Festival is a full-day of Zydeco music, Cajun and Creole foods, kids activities, and all around ragin’ Cajun fun! Savor the tastes of authentic Cajun and Creole fare - jambalaya, alligator, etouffe, andouille sausage, and crawfish. Also enjoy Lowcountry favorites like seafood and Southern barbecue. For those who prefer a tamer menu, we’ll serve up ample portions of festival foods like hot dogs, snow cones, and more.
