A visitor's guide to the Friendly Midway, Columbia, SC, an area Where Friendliness Flows


Night Life

There is a high concentration of "night spots" in the Village of Five Points, the Congaree Vista, and the Main Street corridor areas of midtown Columbia.  Here you will find music, entertainment, dining and dancing to suit your tastes, from rock 'n' roll to country and western, disco to bluegrass, jazz to salsa, or just a quiet neighborhood gathering place.  It's all there for your enjoyment.

Crowds of revelers throng the Five Points area on weekends

Since this is a family-oriented site, we don't recommend or list establishments whose primary business is selling alcoholic beverages.  But all of the restaurants offer drinks in addition to dining, dancing and entertainment.

Click here to see some pictures of the recent Five-Points annual Halloween Party!  Besides Halloween, Five-Points celebrates St. Patrick's Day, spring break, New Year's Eve, and any other holiday or special event you can imagine. 

We hope you have a pleasant visit to Columbia, South Carolina, truly both the Friendly Midway© and COOLumbia©!  We look forward to many more visits from you.

Be sure to visit our online store before you leave our site.  It grows daily with new merchandise and services, some of which are free.
