Annual Events in the Town of Weaverville, NC

The Town works to sponsor and host events year-round. The events hosted by the Town include our Summer Music Series, Music on the Knoll, July 4th, and Holiday Parade. Event venues include our Main Street Nature Park, Community Center, and Main Street in Downtown.

We also sponsor and support annual events organized by the Weaverville Business Association, including Art in Autumn, Music on Main, and the Candlelight Stroll.

July 4th in Downtown

On Main Street Thursday, July 4th, 2024.

Live music from Breakfast for Dinner will start at 7:00pm. Breakfast for Dinner is a vibrant collective of seasoned musicians delivering a indie-soul sound with a creative twist, blending, pop, and dynamic mashups that surprise and delight their audiences. Get a sneak peek of their singing here.

Streets intersecting Main Street will be closed to allow for plenty of room for folks to bring lawn chairs, blankets, and dance the night away to live music. The fireworks display will follow around 9:15pm. The fireworks are sent off from the Weaverville Primary School ballfield.

Arrive early to get food and beverages from Main Street establishments. The municipal parking lot will feature food vendors and a tent for relaxation and shade.

Annual Holiday Parade

We host our annual Holiday Parade on the first Saturday of December every year. This event is a super sweet celebration of our community and the holiday season. This Main Street romp is entering it’s 38th year.

For a long time, our Holiday Parade was managed by dedicated volunteers in partnership with  Town Departments. In order to ensure safety and continuity, the Town now oversees every aspect of the parade, relying on a dedicated group of volunteers for planning and day-of support. Please click here if you are interested or able to support day-of needs.

Weaverville’s annual Holiday Parade will take place on Saturday, December 6th, at 11am, kicking off from the SECU parking lot on N. Main Street. 

Every parade entry has submitted an online application and fee, and attended a required safety meeting.

All questions can be directed to Mike Deserio, Community Center Manager at (828) 470-8747 or mdeserio@weavervillenc.org
