There’s more than sand and sun to a Myrtle Beach getaway. Especially when you visit off-season, it helps to have some indoor activities to turn to. Lucky for you, this area is loaded with entertainment talent.
Next time you’re in Myrtle Beach, check out the lineup of shows.
Many venues also have holiday productions this time of year. It just adds to the variety of entertainment to choose from. Pair a show with dinner and drinks, and you’ll want to come to the Grand Strand again in the offseason.
