About Marion Square Park

Marion Square Park is a 10-acre public park located at 329 Meeting St in the heart of Charleston, SC. Jointly owned by the Washington Light Infantry and the Sumter Guards, and operated as a city park, it remains a flexible, open terrain — perfect for a wide range of events from community gatherings to festival settings. The central area serves as a parade ground, while the surrounding lawn and monument spaces invite versatile layouts for concerts, markets, and outdoor experiences.

As a guest, you’ll find easy access, local flavor, and convenient services nearby. We’ve got you covered with practical details on seating, parking, transit, and nearby lodging and dining to help you secure your plans in Charleston’s historic core.
