Carolina Country Music Fest (CCMF) is an outdoor country music festival that takes place in June of each year in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The festival was founded in 2015 by Charlotte-based company Full House Productions.[1][2]
Carolina Country Music Fest is held at the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk within the Burroughs and Chapin Pavilion Place (former Myrtle Beach Pavilion site).[3] and is a three-day (Friday through Sunday) country music festival that begins with the McDonald's® Thursday Night Kick-Off Concert Powered by MyrtleBeach.com on Thursday evening.[2] The premiere event in 2015 brought in over 20,000 attendees,[4] while the second year (2016) brought in 25,000.[5] The 2017 CCMF welcomed 30,000 people to the festival.[6] In 2020, the festival was cancelled due to COVID-19,[7] but was welcomed to Myrtle Beach once again from June 10–13, 2021. The sold-out 2021 festival drew an estimated 35,000 attendees.[8]
The Carolina Country Music Fest spans 18 acres of coastal area from the boardwalk to Ocean Boulevard, and added a fifth stage in 2021 to accommodate more artists and larger crowds. The stages include the Coors Light Main Stage, the Crown Royal Stage, Bluemoon Sound Stage and the Coca-Cola Stage + the private artist ZYN stage. The fifth annual Carolina Country Music Fest was held June 6–9, 2019.[3][9][10][11] The annual event has sold out two years in a row (2021, 2022).[12]
