We have some exciting news to share with the Live Like Locals community, and honestly, this one feels like a perfect fit.
Kia Country of Savannah has officially joined Live Like Locals as our May Community Partner. That means this month, you are going to see Kia Country of Savannah right alongside us at some of our biggest and most-loved community events – not as a distant brand name on a banner, but as an active, present, face-to-face part of the community you already love.
Here is a look at what is happening, why it matters, and how you can be part of it.
Who Is Kia Country of Savannah?
Kia Country of Savannah is a locally serving Kia dealership right here in the Savannah area. They are not just a place to buy a car – they are a business run by people who live and work in this community. Their marketing and finance manager, Blair Campbell, helped bring this partnership to life, and that tells you something. When someone at that level is personally invested in showing up for the community, it is more than a marketing move. It is a commitment.
This partnership is about Kia Country of Savannah making the decision to stop sitting on the sidelines and start showing up where Savannah actually gathers. And we are here for it.
Why Community Partnerships Matter – For All of Us
If you have been following Live Like Locals for a while, you already know that we are not just an events calendar or a social media page. We are a platform built around one core idea: that the best version of Savannah happens when locals – residents and businesses alike – actually connect with each other.
When a local business becomes a Live Like Locals partner, they are choosing to invest in that connection. They are saying yes to being present at free community events, yes to meeting people where they are, and yes to building relationships before a transaction ever takes place.
That is the kind of local business we want to spotlight. That is the kind of partnership that benefits everyone.
For our community members, it means more supported events, more activations, and more businesses that actually know your name. For local business owners reading this, it is a living example of what showing up for your community looks like in practice.
Three Events. Three Chances to Connect.
This month, Kia Country of Savannah will be with us at three community events across the Savannah area. Every single one of them is free to attend.
Night Market and Movie Night – Wilmington Island
Saturday, May 9, 2026 | 4:30 PM to 8:30 PM In collaboration with Chatham County Parks
One of our most beloved recurring events is back, and Kia Country of Savannah will be on the ground with a vehicle display and a branded booth. Come for the market, stay for the movie, and stop by to say hello to the Kia team while you are there. This is a free, family-friendly evening on Wilmington Island and one of the best ways to spend a May Saturday in Savannah.
If you have never been to a Live Like Locals Night Market, this is the month to change that.
Local Social – Hosted by Kia Country of Savannah
Thursday, May 14, 2026 | 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM At Kia Country of Savannah
This one is a little different and a lot of fun. Kia Country of Savannah is not just sponsoring the May Local Social – they are hosting it at their dealership. Between 65 and 100 local business professionals, entrepreneurs, and community leaders will gather for an evening of genuine networking in a welcoming, upscale setting.
The Live Like Locals Local Social is one of the most consistently well-received events we produce. It is professional without being stiff, social without being shallow. If you are a business owner, a community leader, or simply someone who wants to build real connections in Savannah, this event belongs on your calendar.
Attendance is free. Space is limited.
Grand Opening Celebration – Novo Luxury Apartments, Bloomingdale
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 | 12:00 PM to 3:00 PM Bloomingdale, GA
Bloomingdale is growing, and Live Like Locals is proud to be part of celebrating it. Novo Luxury Apartments is opening its doors, and Kia Country of Savannah will be there with a vehicle display and booth as part of the celebration. Come welcome a new landmark to the community and meet the people helping shape the future of the area.
What Makes This Partnership Different
A lot of brands sponsor events. They write a check, put their logo on a flyer, and call it community involvement. That is not what this is.
Kia Country of Savannah is physically present at every event. Their team is on the ground, talking to people, listening, and building the kind of trust that no advertisement can manufacture. They are not asking you to come to a dealership. They are coming to you.
That is the Live Like Locals standard for community partnership, and we are proud that Kia Country of Savannah is meeting it.
For Local Business Owners: This Is What It Looks Like
If you are a local business owner and you have been wondering what it means to partner with Live Like Locals, watch what Kia Country of Savannah does this month. Three events. Real visibility. Authentic community engagement. Video content distributed across our platform and theirs. And most importantly, real conversations with real people across Savannah.
Community marketing is not about impressions. It is about presence. And presence builds trust faster than any ad spend ever will.
If you are curious about what a Live Like Locals partnership could look like for your business, reach out to us. We would love to talk.
