Since 1994, First Night® Fredericksburg has become a holiday tradition and city treasure. Beginning at 6:30pm and ending with the midnight celebration, downtown Fredericksburg is the stage where revelers enjoy - and even join in - the multiple, simultaneous, and continuous performances and activities by our region's diverse artists. Held in historic churches, Old Town streets, and businesses, all First Night sites are alcohol free, allowing our city's celebration on New Year's Eve to be an event that everyone can enjoy.
Our Mission
First Night® Fredericksburg's mission and goal is to provide a safe, entertaining, and family friendly alternative to traditional New Year's Eve celebrations. In so doing, we broaden and deepen our city's appreciation of the visual and performing arts through an innovative, diverse, and high-quality New Year's Eve program which offers the Fredericksburg community a shared cultural experience that is accessible and affordable.
First Night® began in Boston in 1976 as a unique way to celebrate the arts and the New Year. Now an international phenomenon, First Night® will take place in more that 180 cities this year. Please visit First Night International®
