About this event

Join us for Girls' Day 2025 in Columbia, SC on the campus of the University of South Carolina. Teen girls will spend the day with the Pretty Powerful team and receive the boost of confidence and energy they need to tackle the school year. This will be a day filled with workshops, panel discussions, a free thrift shop, crafts/activites, food and more!

Oh and did we mention the giveaways? We're giving away some really dope prizes, BUT you have to be in the room to win.

Think:

  • A nail appointment with a local favorite,
  • Lash kits
  • Polaroid camera + film
  • A full-body LED mirror
  • A Brandon Blackwood Bag (yes, for real)
  • Pretty Powerful merch
  • And a wallet stacked with gift cards to your favorite places

If you (or your teen) has ever been to a Pretty Powerful event, you know the vibes and if this is your first one, we can't wait to meet you! Enjoy some pics below from last year's event.

And please note that space is limited.

Frequently asked questions

Can middle school girls attend?

Typically, our events are for high school girls only. But lately, we have received requests about middle school girls. Yes, they can attend, but please give us a heads up by emailing info@shesprettypowerful.com.

Can parents/guardians stay for the event?

Yes, parents and guardians can stay on site. We will have a separate waiting area for you. We've learned that girls tend to open up more when they have their space. You are more than welcome to take a look in on our sessions and how we do things!

Is transportation provided?

If you're located in Columbia, SC and can't find a ride to Girls' Day but really want to come, email us at info@shesprettypowerful.com. We will get you there safely with parent/guardian permission.

Is money need to participate in Girls' Day?

Nope! This year, we've made Girls' Day completely free. With that said, we are planning for your attendance. If you RSVP and can't make it, please email us as soon as possible at info@shesprettypowerful.com. Our events usually sellout and there is likely another teen girl who can take your spot.
