The Firebird Festival is an annual celebration of the borough’s namesake – the Phoenix. The festival is free to the public. Come celebrate the winter solstice and the burning of the Phoenix as we celebrate our 20th Anniversary!
The Festival site opens to revelers at 4:00 pm! Come early and visit the many craft and food vendors in the Festival Village. Take pictures near the bird and be sure to tag with #freetheformtonewspaces and #firebirdfestival so we can share in the memories.
Firebird dancers, fire spinners, and more will be performing at the Festival site throughout the event.
