The 5th annual Beaufort Sandbar Concert has officially been cancelled as of this morning.

The popular concert in the middle of the Beaufort River was supposed to take place on July 18th, but organizer and country singer Pat Cooper announced its cancellation this morning in a Facebook post.

There has been a spike in coronavirus infections in South Carolina and across most of the nation which forced the cancellation by the organizers or SCDNR, who approved the concert back in May.

For the past four years, the concert on a borrowed barge in the water has been a huge hit drawing a big crowd that easily numbers in the thousands. Itโ€™s events just like this one that help make Beaufort the awesome little town that it is.

This one should undoubtedly be back next summer.
