North Carolina Festival by the Sea



The last full weekend in October is when the Holden Beach Merchants Association hosts the popular North Carolina Festival by the Sea. This 2-day event will be held October 27 and 28, 2012, and is kicked off with a parade down the Holden Beach Causeway. This is the only day of the year that you can walk across the Holden Beach bridge and each year several hundred take that high altitude stroll to stake out the perfect spot to view the parade.
