Welcome to Shandon
One of Columbia, South Carolina's largest in-town neighborhoods, sits near the bustling districts of Five Points, Devine Street, and Rosewood Drive. Characterized by mature trees, wide streets with sidewalks, inviting parks, and beautiful homes, this charming area offers residents an idyllic urban living experience.
Top O’ the Morning to You!
“St. Pats in 5 Points” is inviting the Shandon Neighborhood, along with other surrounding neighborhoods, to be part of South Carolina’s largest one-day festival on Saturday, March 15, 2025.
To show our participation, in addition to our entry in the Saturday parade, the Shandon Neighborhood is encouraging all residents to decorate their yards and house fronts with St. Patrick’s and Irish-themed décor. Decorations will be judged, and 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners will be recognized with a congratulatory sign for their yard.
All Shandon residents are invited to participate by Going Green, but to be eligible for special recognition, you must submit your address via email to [email protected] by March 7, 2025. Homes should be decorated and ready for judging by Saturday, March 8, 2025. Winners will be announced by Friday, March 14, 2025, and signs recognizing their efforts will be posted no later than Saturday morning, March 15.
Let’s all join in the fun, spread the word, and show our Shandon and “Irish” spirit!

Shandon Neighborhood Council
