HURRICANE HELENE
Yesterday, Sept. 25, Buncombe County declared a local state of emergency, following Governor Cooper’s state of emergency for North Carolina, as the area prepares for the impacts of Hurricane Helen. The City of Asheville, adhering to best public safety practices, will be diverting resources to storm response. As such, they made the hard decision to cancel permits for events on streets and City-owned property scheduled from Thursday to Sunday. Sadly, this cancellation affects our event as well.
We deeply apologize this event has been cancelled due to the large impact of hurricane Helene on the greater Asheville area, we are very sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused
