GALLERY | Borofest 2024 makes East Vine come alive

BoroFest 2024 was back for its third year and has continued to grow, as does Statesboro's downtown. Many businesses pitched in to make sure this event was as enjoyable as could be, along with the many vendors that were in attendance.

BoroFest comes around once a year and aims to bring the Statesboro community downtown. This year's festival on July 13 lasted from 3pm to 9pm along E. Vine St. and had performances by Space Gator and other talented artists here in the community.  

The hot summer evening didn't keep the community from coming down and having fun. There were more than a handful of vendors who provided goods and crafts to promote their services.
