Hot Summer Nights on the Boulevard
After a full day of fun in the sun followed by a delectable dinner out on the town, corral the family to the heart of Myrtle Beach for Ocean Boulevard's Hot Summer Nights. Depending on what night it is, you and yours can catch whimsical street performers, a children's carnival, a humongous fireworks display or a jammin' concert of rock 'n' roll, reggae, Top 40, country, Motown or other sounds. The good times roll all summer long in the vicinity of Plyler Park and Ocean Boulevard. And best of all, it's FREE!

Are You Ready for Some Seafood?
