🎄✨ Every December, the little town of Bynum fills with music, laughter, and the warmth of old friends gathering together. This year is no different—Bobby Gales is bringing his New Direction Bluegrass Band back home for a special Christmas concert at the historic Bynum General Store.
📅 Thursday, December 12
⏰ Doors open at 6:00 • Show begins at 7:00
📍 950 Bynum Rd, Pittsboro, NC 27312
But don’t just come for the music—come hungry! Before the concert, we’ll be holding a community chili cookoff and potluck supper. Everyone is welcome at the table—no need to bring anything (though extra dishes are always appreciated, and vegetarian options are always part of the spread). It’s the kind of meal where you pass bowls and swap stories, where neighbors turn into family.
After supper, the music begins. New Direction will fill the old store with bluegrass harmonies, Christmas songs, and the kind of joy that makes you feel rooted and lifted all at once.
There’s no charge for admission or parking—just come as you are. A pith helmet will be passed for donations, as always. Easy and free parking is available at the Bynum ball field or in the lot beside the store.
So gather your friends, bring the kids, and come be part of a tradition that’s more about community than anything else. Good food, good music, good people—that’s what Christmas in Bynum is all about. 🌟
