This Is Why You’ll Love the Top of the Grade Concerts

There is no doubt that music has been bringing people together for thousands of years. If you are a music lover, you should definitely attend one of the Top of the Grade Concerts! This set of outdoor concerts has become a summer favorite of locals and visitors alike. Grab your lawn chairs, some snacks, and a bottle of wine, then head to this event for a night of good music and fun.

About the Top of the Grade Concerts

The Top of the Grade Concerts take place throughout the summer at McCreery Park in downtown Saluda. The venue is less than a 5-minute drive away from Orchard Inn! Each summer, there are five concerts hosted throughout the season. Attendees get to see both returning performers from previous years and bands that are making their debut! Find a band you think you’ll enjoy, then book your stay at Orchard Inn. The lineup is usually released during the spring, so make sure to check the Top of the Grade Concerts website for the latest lineup.

What to Bring

The number one thing to bring to the Top of the Grade Concerts is seating. These events are outdoors at a park, so there are no actual seating arrangements. Bring your blankets and lawn chairs, then set up where you desire! Since the venue is small, there is no bad seat in the house.

These concerts are also held rain or shine, so we always recommend bringing an umbrella or raincoat if showers are in the forecast. Sometimes a little water makes it even more fun! There are no food vendors at the show, but you are more than welcome to bring drinks and snacks to enjoy as you watch. All the restaurants in Saluda will be open, so you can always grab a bite to eat just moments away in town.
