The 2022 Rosewood Crawfish Festival was held on May 7, bringing crowds to enjoy crawfish and live music. 

Held at the South Carolina State Fairgrounds, the one-day festival was headlined by New Orlean's Cowboy Mouth and local acts like Soda City Riot and Prettier Than Matt. Festival organizers touted that they bring over 10,000 pounds of crawfish from Louisiana for the festival. 

Free Times photographer John A. Carlos II was on hand to capture the sights of one of the area's top one day attractions.
