The SC State Fiddling Championship will take place on Saturday, September 17, starting at 9:15 am. The competition has run as late as 8 pm in the past, so please plan accordingly. Registration fees, prize money, and other information are outlined on our website, along with competition rules. Each registered competitor will receive one free general admission ticket to Saturday’s event.

Hagood Mill will be in operation throughout the day so make sure to purchase fresh stone ground products while you’re on site. There will also be living history demonstrators and artisan vendors. We will also have food trucks throughout the day. As always, we encourage visitors to bring lawn chairs or blankets for the show. Visitors are also welcome to bring their favorite old-time instruments and join in the “open jam” which typically takes place throughout the day under the ancient cedar beside our beloved 1791 log cabin.

Admission is $5.00 per person aged 13 and up. Children 12 and under are free and there are no parking fees. Admission includes entrance to the Hagood Mill Historic Site as well as the Heritage Pavilion and Hagood Creek Petroglyph Site. Camping is available onsite all weekend.
