Looking for the perfect spring day trip?
Step into 1775… right here in downtown Front Royal. 🇺🇸
We’re inviting you to join us in historic downtown Front Royal for From Lanterns to Liberty — a free, family-friendly celebration kicking off Warren County’s America 250 events.
Spend the afternoon exploring small-town Americana at its best:
• Vendors with unique and fun items
• Live blacksmithing & colonial crafts
• Hands-on activities for kids
• Music, storytelling & student performances
• Local food, shopping & walkable downtown charm
As evening falls, gather your family and join the Paul Revere’s Midnight Glow Walk, carrying lanterns along Chester Street from the Warren Heritage Society to the Front Royal Gazebo.
The night ends with a dramatic recreation of
“One if by land, two if by sea,” followed by musket display under the spring sky.
It’s immersive. It’s interactive. It’s uniquely Front Royal.
Make a day of it. Bring your friends.
Join us and experience a little small-town Americana with us.
