Covid-19 Update
The Little River Chamber of Commerce & Visitors Center remains diligent in closely monitoring all aspects of the Covid-19 pandemic. We currently do not have the appropriate indicators and/or firm guidelines from local authorities for hosting a large outdoor event such as the World Famous Blue Crab & Little River ShrimpFest. While we cautiously continue to plan for the festival in October, new vendor applications have not been released and will not be available until August 1, 2020 at the earliest.
We appreciate your patience with us as we navigate this situation through the upcoming months. Please continue to be conscientious with CDC guidelines to protect your health and those around you to help contain and prevent the further spread of this virus. We all want it to be over.
All updates will be posted to our websites for your convenience. You can also subscribe to our vendor emails to receive applications for future events as soon as they are published.
