UPDATE, 1/10/25: THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED DUE TO WINTRY WEATHER
Get ready to party like it’s…well, January 11th. Immediately following the 2025 North Carolina Inauguration Ceremony, Fayetteville Street will transform into a buzzing hub of music, food trucks, and 70+ vendors showcasing the best of North Carolina’s entrepreneurial spirit. From artisan crafts to mouthwatering eats, this free block party runs from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm and promises all the good vibes.
This isn’t sponsored (don’t worry, we’d tell you). We’re just fans of any event where “resilience” includes crafts and eating.
