Asheville Sparkles for the Holidays
Be part of the comeback
Asheville Is Open and Welcoming Visitors for the Holidays
The spirit of holiday travel takes on a deeper meaning this year across the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. In the wake of Hurricane Helene, Asheville area artists, makers, chefs, performers and shop owners are calling visitors back as major attractions reopen and seasonal festivities are announced—including Christmas at Biltmore, The Omni Grove Park Inn's new “Gingerbread Trail of Giving,” and holiday markets and events featuring the resilient artists, makers and innovators of Appalachia.
Our Blue Ridge Mountain community is eager to share the magic of the season with you. Every ticket, reservation or locally purchased holiday gift offers hope and help for this beloved Blue Ridge Mountain community.
