Popcorn & Prohibition is Sept. 3


GREENVILLE- Join Main Street Greenville as they step back into the 1920s for the Popcorn and Prohibition First Friday Event on September 3 from 6-9 p.m.


Legend states that Frank and Ida Thomas owned the best popcorn stand in the area from 1891 to 1937. Drawing people from all walks of life, Ida’s popcorn was a 5¢ staple in Downtown Greenville. In honor of the “Popcorn Lady” and her long standing business, attendees at this First Friday event are encouraged to stop by the Welcome Center at 421 S Broadway to receive a free bag of popcorn. The fun does not stop there! In each bag, attendees will find a list of secret speakeasy locations and deals offered by local businesses exclusively during this event.


Curious attendees can expect an evening of music with performances by The GreenDeVilles sponsored by The Merchant House and Tribute Funeral Homes and acoustic music from Jason Grieshop. Businesses downtown will be offering deals like free gifts, discounts on purchases, popcorn and exclusive bathtub gin! In true prohibition fashion, the details of where these offers will be located are a secret. In order to find out where they can discover these deals, attendees must get their popcorn first.


With the prohibition theme, the evening promises to be a great time to take advantage of the DORA. Visit mainstreetgreenville.org to find more information about the DORA including where you can carry your beverages and how the DORA works.


First Friday events aim to bring people downtown during evening hours to enjoy activities, demonstrations, food, and music in a beautiful historic setting. The monthly event is presented by Main Street Greenville – a non-profit organization committed to stimulating and supporting revitalization efforts, historic preservation, and economic growth in historic Downtown Greenville.

I plan to read more on the blog because the quality here is so consistent. Whether the subject is light or technical, the writing stays clear and welcoming throughout. That reliability is rare online. I've learned to trust the recommendations because they've held up in practice. The author clearly cares about getting things right. That care shows in every entry. Thank you for the great content.

Informative, balanced, and a real pleasure to read. You explained the nuance instead of oversimplifying, which built a lot of trust. I spent a good while afterward in this blog category. It's full of equally thoughtful articles. Thank you for the honest, careful approach. I appreciate it a lot. Looking forward to more.

This helped me far more than I expected when I clicked in. I'd been spinning my wheels on the exact problem you addressed, and your explanation finally broke the logjam. The practical tips at the end were the cherry on top. A web blog that turns confusion into clarity is worth its weight in gold. Thank you sincerely. More of this, please.
