There are numerous popups and special events happening for the holiday season in West Asheville, please check out our calendar for local events, activities, and specials.
We are once again coordinating:
- WAVL Business to Business Gift Card Exchange – This swap is for WAVL businesses, not a public event.
- West Asheville Scavenger Hunt Challenge – How many stamps can you collect?
- West Asheville Holiday Decorating Contest – Online voting for Community Favorite opens December 4, 2026.
Please join us in celebrating and supporting our community of small, independent businesses, and organizations this holiday season (and of course, year-round).
