MoonPie General Store and The City Market Celebrate Memorial Day Weekend
MoonPie General Store is joining with Charleston’s City Market to celebrate two significant events – MoonPie General Store’s first anniversary and The City Market’s grand reopening after having completed a major refurbishment of its open air market facilities over the last six months.
The festivities will begin with a bluegrass concert on Friday, May 28th at 7:00 PM in Building B of The City Market, next to the MoonPie General Store, performed by Mountain Cove Bluegrass of Signal Mountain, TN, a young and rapidly rising band formed in 2008.
Also at 7 PM Friday night, the City Market will be hosting its weekly Art in the Evening series featuring works from many talented local artists. And on Saturday, from 11:00 – 1:00, Mountain Cove Bluegrass will be performing again in the courtyard of the City Market. At the conclusion of this concert, the MoonPie General Store will cut and serve the World’s Largest MoonPie. Weighing 55 lbs., measuring 40″ in diameter and 6″ in height and boasting 14 lbs. of marshmallow, 6 lbs. of chocolate and 45,000 calories, the World’s Largest MoonPie is a sight to behold and serves several hundred. Come join the celebration!
