Happy Friday!
Happy Memorial Day Weekend! ‘The Season’ has officially begun!
There is so much going on this weekend, I hardly know where to start. The Boardwalk Blast concert series starts tonight with Beatlesque. And the first Boardwalk Fireworks show will be at 9pm tonight. There is something called a Silent Disco happening at Kindred Weddings and Events. Saturday is the opening of the always popular Carolina Beach Market at the Carolina Beach Lake Park. There is live music galore, and if you want to showcase your singing talent (or lack thereof), there is Karaoke almost every night. Check out the complete list of events below!
Here are the events that I’m seeing around the island this weekend and next week.
