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.
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!
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!
