The Commons is hosting a five-year anniversary celebration on Nov. 16.
The food hall, which expanded earlier this year with the opening of its second phase, is located along the Swamp Rabbit Trail and the Reedy River in Unity Park.
The event will be held from noon to 6 p.m., with food, giveaways, family activities and anniversary t-shirts for the first 25 guests. Several musicians will perform, including:
- Taylor Corum, 12:30 p.m.
- Karen Clardy, 1:45 p.m.
- Moonshine State, 3 p.m.
- Andrew Wakefield, 4:15 p.m.
- Darby Wilcox, 5:30 p.m.
Incoming eatery Paseo will be serving paella as a sneak peek, and other vendors will offer special items. The current lineup at The Commons includes Automatic Taco, Golden Brown & Delicious, The Community Tap, Methodical Coffee, LaRue Fine Chocolates & Ice Cream, Indigo Kitchen, MooHogz Craft BBQ, and Kuka Juice.
The Commons opened in 2019 while Unity Park, which opened in 2022, was still under construction.
“Five years ago, we envisioned creating a vibrant community hub showcasing Greenville’s culinary talent,” said Drew Parker, co-founder of The Commons. “Today, The Commons stands as a testament to that vision and our community’s incredible support. We’re proud of what we’ve built together and are excited for the future.”
A majority stake in The Commons was purchased in September by Aston, which also owns North Hills Shopping Center, Verdae Village, McBee Station, McDaniel Village and Powdersville Plaza.
The Commons is located at 147 Wellborn St. in downtown Greenville.
