July 3-9 EVENTS Holiday Quick View: Here’s a look at events happening around the First Peak of the Blue Ridge from July 3-9, 2024. The First Peak is filled with fun this holiday week. Enjoy two of our longest running festivals – the Fabulous Fourth in Columbus on Thursday and Coon Dog Day in Saluda on Saturday. These downtown festivals in the mountains have it all and will be a fun filled experience! Plus there’s lots of other great things – we’re excited to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the Tryon International Equestrian Center on Saturday. Check out this list or the photos below to read the details.
Stay with us for a long holiday weekend in the mountains – find a cozy or adventurous vacation rental, then cool off during the day tubing or on a porch swing. Enjoy the sound of the katydids and the night sky filled with stars. It’s magical here!
Our interactive map is a great guide. Stop by for a meal or a snack at our many locally owned restaurants with this reference – our Restaurant Guide.
