Make plans today for First Night® Fredericksburg 2010 - Thursday, December 31, 2009!
Since 1994, First Night® Fredericksburg has become a holiday tradition and city treasure. Downtown Fredericksburg is the stage through the evening with revelers enjoying - and even joining in - the multiple, simultaneous, and continuous performances and activities by our region's diverse artists. The New Year is welcomed in at the Midnight Celebration and lighting of the First Night Lantern. 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 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.
First Night Fredericksburg
2009 was a success! We were thrilled to have so many people downtown, First
Night buttons flashing, despite the wind and below freezing temperatures!
Thousands of citizens attended, enjoying the festive atmosphere and wide
variety of performers.
