Road Closures Impact Nashville, Myrtle Beach Ahead CMA, Carolina Country Music Fests

The Carolina Country Music Festival (CCMF) is set to take place in Myrtle Beach from June 5 to June 8, featuring headliners such as Kid Rock, Lainey Wilson, Jelly Roll, and Rascal Flatts. City officials have emphasized preparations for a safe event, addressing concerns related to recent downtown shootings and public safety measures, including heat management and weather precautions. Ahead of the festival, multiple road closures will be implemented around the Burroughs & Chapin Pavilion Place to manage heavy traffic and ensure safety, with some closures beginning as early as May 30 and lasting through mid-June. Officials have reassured the public that downtown events, including CCMF, have historically been safe, and they continue to work closely with emergency and health services to maintain safety standards. The festival is anticipated to draw thousands of attendees, and city representatives have held press conferences to inform the public about event logistics and safety protocols. These measures are part of broader efforts to provide a secure and enjoyable experience for festival-goers.
