News from First Night

General Information

Make the most of your First Night experience by planning your evening in advance. Since seating at each venue is limited, you might want to identify a second choice for each timeslot. A half-hour of walking time between each performance is built into the schedule.

First Night Virginia will joyfully proceed regardless of weather. Remember, all of the performances are indoors.

We must clear each venue completely between performances. Even if you want to see the very next performance in that venue, we will ask you to exit quickly and join the line of folks waiting to get in. Please keep in mind that many of our venues are donated to us free of charge. Be respectful of them. There is no smoking, food, or drink in any First Night venue.

First Night Virginia volunteers will be clearly identified. They are there to help in any way they can. Please use them!

If you'd like to volunteer (and get a free admission button in the process) find out more here, or give us a call at 434.975.8269.

All sales of buttons and reserved seats are final. There are no refunds or exchanges
