Picnic for the Parks

April 26 @ 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Spring is in the air! There is no better way to enjoy the season than with family, friends, fresh air, and fun-filled day in the park.

Join Charleston Parks Conservancy for Picnic for the Parks presented by Biom, a beautifully curated spring fundraiser set beneath the oaks of Hampton Park. This signature family-friendly event blends timeless picnic charm with elevated design, live music, delicious food, and classic lawn games – all in support of Charleston’s public parks.

Parents can relax with an open bar, live music, and incredible local food partners while kids enjoy a full lineup of activities across the lawn.

Activities for kids (and kids at heart!) include:

  • Giant Super Slide
  • Face Painting
  • Petting Zoo
  • Flower Crown Station
  • Field Games
  • Giant Lawn Games
  • Photo Booth
  • Live Music by Melody Music by Sabrina

Food & Drinks

Enjoy family-friendly food offerings from The Dewberry, Lillian’s Petite Market & Eatery, D’Allesandro’s Pizza, Basic Kitchen, and more.

Snack and refreshment stations will be available for kids, while adults can enjoy a curated bar by Graft Wine Shop & Wine Bar and Bevi Bene Brewing Company.

Designed with thoughtful picnic details by Baylye Burnette Events — from patterned linens and shaded lounge spaces to curated activity stations — this event is a joyful celebration of community, springtime, and Charleston’s parks.

All proceeds from this event directly benefit the mission of the Charleston Parks Conservancy in 26 public parks, gardens and trails. Come celebrate the Conservancy and help us raise critical funds needed to continue our mission to inspire the people of Charleston to connect with their parks and together create stunning public spaces and a strong community!

Tickets are $125 for adults and $50 for kids (under age 2 get in free) and are all-inclusive.
