All events will take place along Front and Howard Streets in historic downtown Greenwood. Things start cooking around 10 a.m. Saturday morning and continue until later in the night. Starting at 3 p.m. and continuing at 6 p.m. on Saturday, the air in downtown Greenwood will be filled with live music.
