Event Organizers
South Carolina Wellness Weekend is a statewide celebration of movement, mindfulness, community, and holistic wellbeing. As part of the global World Wellness Weekend movement, our mission is to inspire people to live healthier, happier lives through accessible, inclusive, and uplifting wellness experiences. This inaugural event brings together leaders across spa, fitness, beauty, hospitality, medical wellness, and lifestyle to create meaningful activations throughout Charleston and the Lowcountry.
Why South Carolina?
South Carolina is home to a vibrant, growing wellness community — from luxury spas and boutique studios to medical-wellness innovators and lifestyle brands. By bringing World Wellness Weekend to our state, we aim to unite these voices, elevate local wellness culture, and create a statewide platform that encourages people to explore wellbeing in ways that feel joyful, approachable, and sustainable.
Why Charleston?
Charleston is a city where history, hospitality, and culture meet — making it the perfect backdrop for a wellness celebration rooted in community and connection. Its walkable downtown, thriving spa and hospitality scene, and reputation as a destination for travelers seeking restorative experiences make Charleston an ideal home for the inaugural South Carolina Wellness Fair.
Our Mission
Our mission is to make wellness approachable, inclusive, educational, inspiring, and accessible for every member of the community. Wellness Weekend South Carolina exists to unite wellness professionals across the state, provide free and low-cost wellness experiences to the community, highlight local businesses and practitioners, inspire healthier living through movement, mindfulness, and connection, and celebrate the global movement of wellbeing.
Our Host Location
The inaugural South Carolina Wellness Fair is co-hosted by the Francis Marion Hotel and The Spa of Charleston, two iconic Charleston institutions known for their commitment to hospitality, luxury, and guest wellbeing. The Francis Marion Hotel provides a historic, elegant setting for workshops, panels, and community activations, while The Spa of Charleston brings a boutique, ritual-driven approach to wellness that elevates the guest experience.
World Wellness Weekend is celebrated in more than 150 countries, connecting millions of people through wellness experiences, community events, and global activations. South Carolina is proud to join this international movement and contribute to a worldwide celebration of wellbeing.
