Festive First Friday 2025

Kick off the holiday season with the Town of Boone and the Downtown Boone Development Association at the annual Festive First Friday celebration and Solar Tree Lighting at the Jones House.

The evening's festivities include visits with Santa at Mast General Store, horse-drawn carriage rides on Howard Street, the annual mascot 'snowball' fight at the Hope Center, and cookies and letters to the North Pole with Mrs. Claus at the post office.

On the Jones House lawn, start the festivities off with a special menorah lighting ceremony with the Temple of the High Country, followed by holiday caroling from the Watauga High School choir, and then the finale with the solar tree lighting countdown courtesy of the App State Sustainable Energy Society. Enjoy free hot chocolate, apple cider, and cookies while supplies last.
