The City of Greer has a rich history since its founding in 1876, and it’s on the right track for an even brighter future. We’re making plans to celebrate our sesquicentennial in a way that’s uniquely Greer: a year-long birthday party that brings together our diverse community, honors our past, and inspires us to create a shared vision for the next 150 years of Greer. Consider this your invitation to join us throughout 2026.

We’re partnering with the Greer Heritage Museum for this once-in-a-lifetime anniversary. The history museum will kick off Greer’s sesquicentennial celebrations with an event in January. We’ll have at least one Greer150 event every month in 2026 including a formal ceremony to mark the city’s official birthday on March 25 and The Big Bash on March 28.
