 on Daniel Island




Park Day is an annual fall festival that brings Daniel Island residents and its visitors together to highlight and benefit local charities. Taking place in Etiwan Park, located on Seven Farms Drive, this entertaining day of events, games, food and music is old-fashioned fun for the entire family.

Supporting A Collection of Good Causes
Select area charities will be recognized for their role in the community and given the opportunity to build awareness and support during Park Day. A chosen non-profit organization will be the beneficiary for a portion of the Park Day proceeds.

Schedule of Events
Starting at 11:00 am and running until 4:00 pm, entertaining and educational Park Day events - including live music, food and beverage, pet activities, kids rides, face painting, and more - will take place at Etiwan Park located on Seven Farms Drive. Admission to Park Day is free. Due to the charitable focus of the day, activities will require a nominal fee.

Corporate Sponsors
Thousands of Daniel Island residents and Charleston Area visitors attend Park Day each year, making it one of the largest one-day festivals in the Lowcountry.

We are looking for companies who have a desire to give back to our community and support local nonprofits.

We invite you to become involved as a sponsor for our longest running and most popular community event that we host on Daniel Island.  The 2017 Park Day will be held on Saturday, November 11th from 11 am - 4 pm at Etiwan Park.

Park Day is more than just a festival, it is a total community endeavor. It is the” big event” of the year that brings awareness to our community, dollars to our nonprofit beneficiaries and provides fun, family entertainment. Last year’s event was one of the largest to date with thousands of Daniel Island residents and Charleston area visitors attending. With your support, our goal is to make this year’s Annual Park Day, our Annual Day of Giving Back to the Community, the best ever! 

Event sponsorship is one of the most effective marketing tools for companies to use in their effort to maximize exposure to their “target market”. It's also critical for the success of large scale community events. Successful events don’t just happen by magic. They take vision, careful planning, hard work and proper funding – that’s where you come in!

v  Complimentary VIP & Other Tent Packages (some including food, beverage and activity tickets) 
v  Opportunity to connect face to face with your “target market”
v  Naming rights to a physical section, area or activity
