The Main Street Sylva Association will host its “Social District of Sylva Celebration” from 4-7 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 21, at Bridge Park and throughout downtown Sylva.
All are welcome to attend with yard games, snacks and beer vendors at Bridge Park, along with a live remote broadcast from Western Carolina University’s radio station, 95.3 FM. A chalk art competition will be held on Railroad Avenue.
Attendees who spend $100 or more that day in downtown Sylva can get a free “Friends of Main Street” thermal Social District cup valued at $25.
When the Brew Hop was started in 2017, it was a ticketed event with the goal of giving locals and visitors a taste of Sylva’s breweries and providing them with great visibility. As the local breweries made a name for themselves, crowd sizes increased making the event difficult to manage.
With the addition of the Social District of Sylva and the variety of craft cocktails, wine and ciders in downtown, the association thought a new twist on the event was worth exploring to give all merchants exposure and make the event more inclusive. Hence, the “Social District of Sylva Celebration.”
The event is family-friendly with something for everyone to enjoy both at Bridge Park and throughout downtown.
