Sun Fun Festival

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
Sun Fun Festival
First week in June
Sun Fun Festival is a beach festival at Myrtle Beach, S.C., to celebrate the state's Grand Strand, a 60-mile stretch of white-sand ocean beach. Myrtle Beach is the central city on the strand and so the fitting place for this five-day celebration that includes an air show, beauty pageants, beach games, music and dance performances, and a sandcastle-building contest. The record for the world's longest sandcastle was set here in 1990—the castle measured 10 1 + 2 miles long. As many as 200,000 people attend.
