The Southport Spring Festival, an annual Brunswick County tradition for almost three decades, will be held Easter Weekend. Over 160 vendors, many showcasing handmade arts and crafts, will be on-hand, and musical entertainment will be featured throughout the weekend. Many children’s activities, including a trackless train, will be offered, and various food vendors will ensure attendees don't go hungry. The Kiwanis Club will be holding a flower and plant sale at the event.  

 

Festivities begin Friday, April 7 at 10 a.m. in Franklin Park, located at the corner of Howe and West streets in downtown Southport, and conclude for the day at 5 p.m. Activities begin again at 10 a.m. Saturday, April 8. The festival ends at 4 p.m. that day.

 

Thousands of residents and visitors from across North Carolina and neighboring states are expected to attend. Admission is free.
