Performance times are from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily. The Acoustic Café operates under a simple set of guidelines:

  • Participants will apply for a performance permit at one of the five downtown locations. The City of Greenville Special Events bureau will select performers based on the type of performance and its family-friendly appeal.
  • Performers are allowed to accept donations by using a city-allocated donation box. Merchandise (such as a performer’s CDs) may be sold, but must be pre-approved.
  • Performers, once selected, are scheduled on a first-come, first-serve basis.
