KidFest 2026 Recap: Beaufort families celebrate annual event

Families gathered for the 26th annual KidFest in Beaufort on March 28 for a day filled with free games, rides, and entertainment. Held in Laurel Bay, the event welcomed the community with activities like face painting, crafts, live performances, and fire truck tours, along with plenty of giveaways and treats for kids.

Hosted by MCCS South Carolina in partnership with the Child Abuse Prevention Association and the Exchange Club of Beaufort, KidFest once again brought together local organizations and families to celebrate children and raise awareness during Child Abuse Prevention Month and the Month of the Military Child.
