Families, friends and neighbors from all over Fauquier Co unty and beyond welcome in the New Year with a community celebration of the arts for people of all ages.
First Night Warrenton will host over 50 wonderful performances at more than 10 indoor locations in downtown Warrenton, all within walking distance of one another. Come and enjoy jazz, classical music, puppet shows, bluegrass, folk music, magicians and much more! First Night concludes at midnight with a traditional Grand Illumination gathering on the Old Courthouse green. Everyone will receive a candle, pass the flame to their neighbor and sing in the New Year as the old courthouse bell rings the last twelve chimes to midnight.
First Night Warrenton is a family oriented, alcohol-free celebration with entertainment coordinated by the Bluemont Concert Series. Performances are held in boardrooms, lobbies, courtrooms, church sanctuaries, parish halls and other locations. Old Town Warrenton provides an ideal setting with its historic charm, convenient parking and many fine restaurants.
