CoastFest 2024 cancelled due to Hurricane Helene impacts

Brunswick, Ga.
Monday, September 30, 2024

The Georgia Department of Natural Resources (DNR) regrets to announce the cancellation of the annual CoastFest event, originally scheduled for this Saturday, Oct. 5, 2024, at Mary Ross Waterfront Park in Brunswick. The cancellation is due to a variety of logistical factors and DNR staff being redirected to assist with critical debris cleanup and recovery efforts in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene.

DNR remains committed to the safety and well-being of our coastal communities and natural resources. Our teams are on the ground working to restore impacted areas.

We appreciate the public's understanding and support during this time. For updates on DNR's ongoing hurricane response, including other DNR facility closures and cancellations, please visit https://linktr.ee/GAWeatherUpdates.
