Planning a festival, race, parade, neighborhood gathering, or other special event in Charleston? We are here to help.
Many events require coordination with one or more City departments, including Parks and Recreation, Public Works, Police, Fire, and Parking. Contact us early in the planning process so we can help identify any permits, approvals, or City services that may be needed.
