2022 CAROLINA'S FINEST

Christmas in July Festival

West Jefferson  |  christmasinjuly.info

It’s the perfect time to head to the cooler temperatures of this quaint mountainous town — served by Blue Ridge Energy — and enjoy mountain music, traditional folk dances like clogging and flat footing, and other entertainment. Shop with local artisans and craftspeople and peruse the town’s shops. People watch or get caught up in activities of street performers, a tree baling competition, and lots of attractions for children, including a visit with Santa. Food vendors and fun are plentiful. Mark your calendar for June 30 and July 1, 2023.


“There is always a good group of vendors and friendly people, held in the fun town of West Jefferson with usually excellent weather. I always attend and enjoy it!”

—Nancy Kiplinger, Greensboro, A member of Blue Ridge Energy
