Where can you have open containers of alcohol in the Grand Strand this Halloween?

This Halloween falls on a Saturday, and spooky celebrants are sure to be out at parties and events across the Myrtle Beach area. For those planning to imbibe this weekend, here’s what to know about alcohol and open container laws in the Grand Strand. Grand Strand areas that allow open containers Every October, Conway transforms into the City of Halloween with creepy decorations and spooky events. During the celebration, pedestrians are permitted to carry beer and wine – but not hard liquor – in non-glass containers on city sidewalks and property downtown. Halloween revelers can also walk around with open containers of alcohol at the Murrells Inlet Marshwalk. Although Georgetown County generally bans the consumption of alcohol on streets, roads, sidewalks and county-owned and operated property without a special event permit, the Marshwalk is an exception. Patrons on the half-mile inlet boardwalk can bring open containers of alcohol between establishments. Halloween alcohol restrictions around Myrtle Beach Elsewhere across the Grand Strand, alcohol consumption is limited to private dwellings and licensed establishments. That includes beaches. Alcohol is prohibited on public beaches in Horry and Georgetown County, including in North Myrtle Beach, Myrtle Beach, Murrells Inlet and Surfside Beach. Although the Town

This downtown Myrtle Beach mini golf course will become a new restaurant. Here's when

The new owner of a now closed Myrtle Beach buffet has shared plans for the building as well as turning a neighboring mini golf course into a restaurant. Steve Ghidella purchased the building that housed Magnolia’s at 26th Restaurant & Conference Center a year ago with plans to turn it into a beachwear shop. But the building is located near the former Sea Dip Inn , which is currently being demolished to make way for a 400-unit Drury Inn at 2608 N. Ocean Blvd. The Sea Dip was in business for 54 years. Ghidella said because of the expected construction that will come with the hotel, the new plan is "to leave (the building) be and wait for the hotel” to be built. What will take the place of golf course? While the Magnolia’s building may sit empty for a while, Ghidella is moving forward with plans to build a restaurant and bar on the location that is now Lost Mine Miniature Golf. The mini golf course at 2601 N. Ocean Blvd. neighbors the former Magnolia’s. Ghidella, who owns several properties along the Grand Strand, including RipTydz in Myrtle Beach and Dead Dog Saloon in Murrells Inlet, said that he

‘My own style’: How a former Myrtle Beach-area basketball star became a Michelin-honored chef

MYRTLE BEACH — Some chefs study their way to the top, but O.A.K. Prime's Jerrett "JK" King got there the hard way. As the Grand Strand's only honoree at the 2026 Michelin Guide's American Southeast earlier this month in Nashville, Tenn., King was in the minority of chefs receiving awards without any classic culinary training. "I worked hard to get where I am, but that's pretty much true in anything you do," said King, a Myrtle Beach-area native who described the experience of earning back-to-back Michelin recommendations as "surreal and mind-blowing." "I've had a lot of people help me along th...
