CHARLESTON, S.C. — Organizers of Riverfront Revival in North Charleston have canceled Saturday’s portion of the two-day music festival and folded more acts into Friday after forecasts warned of heavy rain, wind and flooding tied to Hurricane Isaias.
Event producers said the change was made for safety based on the updated forecast and anticipated conditions. The fifth annual festival, curated by three-time Grammy winner and Charleston native Darius Rucker and produced by SRE Entertainment, will now run Friday, Oct. 9, only.
Friday’s expanded lineup is set to feature Rucker along with Dani Rucker, Gavin Adcock, Old Dominion and additional artists. A separate update listed Charles Wesley Godwin and Atlus among the Friday acts as well.
All 2026 Riverfront Revival tickets remain valid for Friday admission, including one-day and two-day passes of every ticket type. Holders do not need to take extra steps to attend Friday.
Unused Saturday one-day tickets bought through Front Gate Tickets that are not used Friday are to be refunded. Two-day Front Gate tickets are to receive an automatic refund for the difference between the original two-day price and the matching one-day pass. Refunds are described as processing within 30 to 60 days to the original payment method.
Organizers noted some travelers planned only for Saturday and may not be able to attend. Single-day Friday tickets were still being sold at the box office and online when the change was announced.
A portion of ticket proceeds continues to support the Carolyn G. Rucker Nursing Scholarship at the Medical University of South Carolina and Rock N Roll Rescue music-education work in the Charleston area.
