Sparkle City Rhythm & Ribs Festival
We are thrilled to announce our Annual Sparkle City Rhythm & Ribs Festival, which will take place on Saturday, June 6, 2026, at Barnet Park in Spartanburg, SC. Our aim is to provide you with one of the best musical entertainment experiences you can possibly have. We hope to make this year’s festival even more exciting than the previous ones, and we have you to thank for making our past events a success.
As a community service organization, we believe in giving back to the community. Proceeds from the event will be channeled back into the community through our various service projects. Our efforts include providing free eye exams and eye glasses to those in need, as well as supporting Backpack Buddies, a program aimed at combating hunger among children by providing food packs to take home on weekends. This year, we will also be making financial donations to The South Carolina School for the Blind, Miracle Hill Ministries, Upstate Stand Down for Veterans, and the Spartanburg Soup Kitchen.
