Even though it is still wintertime and the holidays just happened, it is the perfect time to start planning those spring break vacations! Savannah is the perfect place to travel to in the spring as you have historical landmarks to explore, a beach nearby, and several parks that will be in full bloom. Finally, Savannah has several popular annual spring events to choose from for an optimal way to embrace the new season.
Here are four events that South Key recommends this spring:
Yes, February could be considered winter, but in Savannah, we consider it the start of the spring season. If you are in Savannah that weekend, check out the 15th Annual Savannah Book Festival in historic downtown Savannah. The festival on Saturday is free for everyone, while the headlining author presentations are available for a small fee.
Some of the authors attending the festival include:
An awesome local golf event for golf enthusiasts is the annual Club Car Championship at The Landings Golf & Athletic Club. This four-day tournament is part of the Korn Ferry Tour Schedule. Participants will play a 72-hole competition with a prize of $1,000,000!
Spectators are even able to get autographs from their favorite players, as long as they are in a designated autograph zone.

Another Savannah staple that brings hundreds of musical artists to Savannah every year is the Savannah Music Festival! With multiple daily events, you’ll have the opportunity to spend your time listening to as much music as you can!

While there is not a set date yet, every April the SCAD design students put their talents on display with a free sidewalk arts festival. Stroll through Forsyth Park to admire the chalk-art masterpieces spread out on the sidewalks. It is a great way to explore Savannah and see some of the local talent.
In addition to the events above, you can’t go wrong with any of these local activities:
Savannah is a beautiful city to visit any time of the year, but there is something special about catching Savannah in that sweet spot as it changes from winter to spring. Visiting at the beginning of spring usually means fewer other tourists so you can find better accommodations, get better dinner reservations, and have more of the city to yourself!
