Welcome to First Night Saint Johnsbury 2010
"Once in a blue moon" is an old expression denoting a rare event. It refers to those not-very-often times when there are two full moons in the same month. That second full moon is called the blue moon.
On the rare occasion that a full moon occurs right on New Year's Eve, that's got to be blue moon. And December 31, 2009 is such an occasion. If we are blessed with a clear night the mystical blue moon will shine bright on our 17th annual First Night celebration in St. Johnsbury.
Our festival of the arts starts at 4 pm and continues on through to the midnight fireworks finale. Anyone sporting this year's blue First Night button can enjoy a line-up of entertainment as full as the moon. The sky's the limit with nearly 100 performances by 50 different artists and shows. It all happens at 19 venues on and around Main Street St. Johnsbury.
So much to see and do in eight short hours. About half of our entertainers this year are First Night first-timers and the other half are well-known and loved by our First Night fans! So welcome to the wonderful world of First Night St. Johnsbury. Plan wisely for an unforgettable evening of entertainment.
Opportunities like this do come only once in blue moon.
