Waverly Live with David Childers Trio, Independence Day Edition
Celebrate this 4th of July with NC Music Hall of Fame Inductee, David Childers along with Korey Dudley (bass) and Robert Childers (percussion). David returns to the Waverly front porch once again. We will have traditional 4th of July cookout fare of Hamburgers, Hot Dogs and more. Hope to see you here!
Singer-songwriter David Childers is the proverbial study in contradictions. A resident of Mount Holly, North Carolina, he’s a former high-school football player with the aw-shucks demeanor of a good ol’ Southern boy. But he’s also a well-read poet and painter who cites Chaucer and Kerouac as influences, fell in love with folk as a teen, listens to jazz and opera, and fed his family by practicing law before turning in his license to concentrate on his creative passions.
HENDERSONVILLE: Fireworks over the Cummings Cove Golf Course
The Cummings Cove Golf & Country Club will be celebrating Independence Day with their members spanning 2 full days (July 5th & 6th), but as usual there will be a spectacular display of fireworks as part of that celebration by their talented resident fireworks team in the evening of July 6th over their golf course, that will be visible by all in the area!
Grand Opening Event
Foothills Watershed is officially open for business!
Join us on July 5th for our Grand Opening, a day-long celebration featuring grill specials, live music, and fun activities for the whole family.
Foothills Watershed is a 117-acre riverside bike park and family hangout in Old Fort, NC—just minutes from downtown. Enjoy trails, shady riverbanks, a natural pond, refreshing drinks, and Latin-inspired food from Chefs Eric Morris and Luis Martinez.
Phuncle Sam 4th of July Show
Come celebrate 4th of July with the music of America’s favorite band, played by Asheville’s favorite Grateful Dead tribute band!
Weekend Live Music
Highland Brewing weekend live music showcases amazing bands including local favorites, talented regional acts, and national touring bands hailing from the East Coast and beyond. Free and open to guests of all ages (unless noted otherwise), bring your crew to dance, listen and vibe to a myriad of genres including soul, bluegrass, acoustic, country, folk, R&B and more!
In warmer months, live music is held on the scenic Meadow stage where camp chairs and blankets are welcome. Coolers and outside beverages are not permitted. Shows are rain or shine – if the skies don’t cooperate, the music moves indoors to the Taproom where we’ve got plenty of room for you to boogie down!
💦 ASHEVILLE AREA SWIMMING POOLS 💦
If area creeks, rivers, and swimming holes aren’t your thing, and waterparks are too far or too costly for your budget, Asheville has several outdoor swimming pools within a reasonable driving distance to escape to during the heatwave, and all summer long! Check them all out at the link above (in order of distance from AVL)!
We’ve tried to keep our list to those under 1 hour away, but if we’re missing one of your favorites, that you feel is worth the gas and distance, let us know, and we’ll add it!
