- The Endless Summer Festival On October 31st, over 4,000 people attended this year’s Endless Summer Festival in North Myrtle Beach. Sunshine and smiles beamed everywhere, including on the North Myrtle Beach Chamber officials and the Avista Resort sponsor (partnered with sister properties Seaside, Prince Resort, and Towers on the Grove) who brought the event to reality. The event was FREE (a good thing in 2009!), and many people settled in to listen to the music from noon to 4 PM. Others wandered around the booths, came and went, and had a great time! There’s always fun happening here in the upper part of the Strand, so keep an eye on the calendar for many upcoming free events in North Myrtle Beach!
