How To Get The Most Out Of Your Last Summer Weekend In Myrtle Beach

Labor Day is right around the corner, and for a lot of people that marks the official end of the lazy days of summer. The kids head back to school and the days start getting shorter.

How will your family finish up its summer? Will you fade slowly back into your fall routine, or close out with one last weekend of warm evenings and lively entertainment fueled by street performers and rockin' bands?

If you'd like to have one more fun-filled summer weekend, head to Broadway at the Beach. Here, Labor Day is much more than just a celebration of summer's end.

Legends In Concert is moonwalking its way through a weekend celebration of the King of Pop's birthday (August 29). From August 29-31, Michael Jackson fans can catch extraordinary tribute artist J Lucas strutting his stuff. The final summer shows at Legends guarantee a thriller every night!

On Friday, August 29, the promenades of Broadway will be alive with music and laughter. At Center Court, you'll hear the giggles of small children as they delight in the free face painting from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Then stroll over to the Heroes Harbor stage where the popular Mr. Nigel's Music show will be enchanting all ages from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. It's a bet that everyone in your family will be intrigued by the Living Statues strolling around from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. But be sure to make time to head to Celebrity Square at 7:30 p.m. when country rocker Ashley Martin takes the stage. Also, save time to get over to Wet Willie's by 9 p.m. when DJ Ryan Robinson will be turning up the volume.

Saturday, August 30th means more fun with the antics of the Whacker Barrel entertainers strolling throughout Broadway from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. You'll have another chance to get the attention of the popular Living Statues when they give encore performances from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Celebrity Square comes alive again at 7:30 p.m. when the Austin Mowery Band performs its own brand of contemporary country music. Then Wet Willie's starts up at 9 p.m. with The Faux Show, a collaboration of five friends with a passion for great music and life. Close out the evening with the Labor Day fireworks show at 10 p.m. sponsored by Helicopter Adventures. It's the final show of the summer season.

Sunday, August 31, the weekend is winding down but Whacker Barrel strolling entertainment will be keeping the energy high from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. And then another magical summer is capped off with the illusions of Bryan Dangerous who'll be performing in front of Capriz at 7 p.m. and 9 p.m.

Summer is coming to a close, but the fall entertainment possibilities at Broadway are just beginning to open up. From festivals to car shows to walks for charity, it's a happening place. We've even got some special fireworks extravaganzas in the works.

We'll be telling you more about all that and more in the weeks to come. Stay tuned!
