In an effort to encourage economic growth, we have developed a calendar of events designed to bring visitors into the town, with a particular focus on our downtown commercial district.

There are numerous special events held throughout the year, including Pork Fest, the Arts and Antiques Festival, and the Elloree Trials, our annual horse racing event held each March.

We have an active business community within the town, and our merchants enjoy participating in the events we sponsor. Because of this, the majority of our special functions are held on downtown Cleveland Street, which is our core commercial district and the home of the Elloree Town Hall and the award-winning Elloree Heritage Museum.
