A ribbon cutting for the West Columbia Riverwalk and Amphitheater will be held, Saturday, April 8, 2017, at 5:45 PM, before the Greater Cayce West Columbia Chamber of Commerce Rhythm on the River.

The section of the Riverwalk from the Moffitt Street entrance to the Amphitheater is now open.

Director of Public Works Jamie Hook said, “We are excited the Riverwalk is open so people can again enjoy the beautiful views and explore the improvements made.”

The West Columbia Riverwalk Park and Amphitheater was closed in November 2016 for the safety of the public and to expedite construction for repairs to the sections damaged during the October 2015 flood and Hurricane Matthew in 2016.
