NYE Countdown and Apple Drop

Join us as we ring in the New Year at at the intersection of Loudoun and Boscawen Streets!

We will be dropping the traditional apple from First Night Winchester at midnight. Shops and restaurants in Old Town will be open extended hours.

While things will look a bit different this year without First Night Winchester, there will still be plenty to see and do all throughout town, so join us to dance, drink, and dine the night away at any of these businesses and then step outside at midnight to watch the apple drop and share a midnight moment with all of us in Old Town Winchester!
