Carolina Day 250: Battle of Sullivan's Island

Charleston roars with history as it celebrates the 250th anniversary of the pivotal Battle of Sullivan’s Island — the first major colonial victory of the Revolutionary War — with a weekend of cannon blasts, reenactments, and a towering palmetto-log replica fort. Pulitzer winner Rick Atkinson headlines the festivities, while the Spirit of South Carolina sails into harbor and British dignitaries join in with royal bands and Red Arrows. Ten thousand are expected to gather for this living tribute to courage, culminating in colonial dance lessons and music under the stars — all building to Independence Day’s grand crescendo.
