The third annual Viva la Vista, a showcase of restaurants along Columbia’s Congaree Vista, is set for 2-7 p.m. Sept. 25.

Looks like a pretty busy weekend in Columbia with two college football games, a festival, a religious convocation, a concert and a bicycle race all going on this Saturday in and around downtown. If Viva La Vista were this weekend instead of next, it would REALLY be crazy downtown.

Columbia turns 225 years old this year. To kick off the year-long celebration of its quasquibicentennial (I had to look it up, lol), there will be a block party on Main tomorrow starting at noon on the 1300 block of Main Street.

Looks like tonight was a pretty busy night in Columbia with all three downtown districts having something special going on: Vista after Five, Five after Five (in Five Points), and the Main Street Urban Tour. Lots of music and food was present too.

All three were hopping.

It's a busy weekend in Columbia: Viva La Vista, the Italian Festival, Rosewood Arts Festival, Irmo Okra Strut, ZOOfari, Jazz Under the Stars, and 10 Years of Bluetile.

Lately Columbia has been getting great news on the concert front, which I would like to believe corresponds with its growing stature as a city. Today, it is expected Paul McCartney will announce he is coming to play the CLA this summer! Pretty cool.
