A weekend built around boats, music, and a waterfront that knows how to draw a crowd Eastern Wharf is setting up for a two day kickoff at the end of the month, the kind of weekend where the river does most of the work. You get people, music, food, lights, and the kind of movement […]

Wondering what to do this week, but tired of hopelessly sifting through event websites and online calendars? Well Savannah Made Simple has done the hard work for you, and curated the best of what is happening in Savannah this week.   Savannah Theatre Book Tickets   Savannah’s Got Talent takes over the historic Savannah Theatre […]

Savannah is about to learn something new about itself. The SEC Volleyball Tournament is arriving at Enmarket Arena with sixteen teams and a level of play the city has never hosted before. It will be fast and loud, with rallies that swing momentum in seconds. For a town that loves big moments, this one is […]

Picture it. Ellis Square pulsing with people. Trays of Sorry Charlie Oysters pulled from local waters. The first hundred guests biting into free short rib sandwiches. Cocktails with a Pepsi twist. The Train Wrecks warming up the stage. Lucero stepping into the lights with a set that spans heartbreak, drinking nights, fatherhood, and twenty five […]

From November 29 through December 22, the Daymark Lawn at The Park at Eastern Wharf will transform into Santa’s Grotto, a festive open-air venue overlooking the Savannah River. The new outdoor space invites local companies to host their holiday parties surrounded by twinkling lights, lush décor, and sweeping riverfront views. “Eastern Wharf is honored to […]

We’ve spent the past week on the red carpets, catching glimpses of stars, filmmakers, and first time directors as they made their way into Savannah’s theaters. But once the lights dimmed and the chatter fell away, it all came down to the films themselves. This year’s SCAD Savannah Film Festival delivered a lineup that ran […]

John Mulaney is returning to Savannah. The Emmy-winning comedian and former Saturday Night Live writer will bring his razor-edged storytelling to the Johnny Mercer Theatre on February 13, 2026, performing his new Mister Whatever Tour for one night only. Known for his sharp timing, self-deprecating humor, and the kind of delivery that makes even the […]

When Joanne Shaw Taylor talks about the blues, she doesn’t sound nostalgic. She sounds alive in it, like someone who’s carried the music through every border crossing and sleepless night, and still finds something sacred in a 12-bar progression. “I think there’s something to be said for places that see a lot of hard times,” […]

The tour hasn’t even started yet, but Matisyahu is already deep in the work. The kind of work that happens before the lights, before the crowd, before the first bass note hums through the floor. When I reached him, he was talking about merch — not the brand-blasted kind, but something that sounded more like […]

When Austin Snell steps onto the Victory North stage this Friday night, it won’t just be another stop on tour. For the Dublin, Georgia native, this one feels personal — a full-circle return to a city where he vacationed with his family as a kid, walking River Street and heading out to the beach. “I’m […]

Molly Tuttle has a way of making you feel like the music’s been with her—and with you—all along. This September 30th, when she takes the stage at Victory North, she’ll be doing more than just picking her way through a setlist. “I’ve been to Savannah many times,” she told me recently. “The first time I […]

The Savannah Music Festival, a cornerstone of the city’s vibrant cultural landscape, is ushering in a new era with Sinisa Ciric as its new President and CEO. Ciric steps into a role poised for a “refresh” as the festival builds towards its monumental 40th anniversary. Ciric’s transition has been a whirlwind, moving from his general […]

Two things most folks who’ve spent a decent amount of time in Savannah over the past three decades could likely agree upon (with varying degrees of excitement) would be this city’s extreme lack of both live music venues with professional quality sound systems and stage lighting, and places for adults to engage in moderate-level physical […]

It’s 2:00 PM and the sun is bleaching Savannah’s cobblestones. A candy-apple-red and state-green trolleybus rattles past the Colonial Park Cemetery. Inside, two ‘morons’ in matching blue-and-green printed overalls and headbands lean into their microphones, their grins wide enough to bridge the Savannah River, start to talk to a mix of bewildered tourists and grinning […]

There’s something about spring in Savannah. The breeze is just soft enough to make you forget about the humidity creeping around the corner, and Forsyth Park—our communal backyard—becomes the scene of something beautifully temporary. On Saturday, April 26, it’ll happen again: chalk will hit concrete, creativity will run wild, and for a few hours, Savannah […]
