We’ve been sitting on the news for a while, but now we’re excited to announce AVLtoday’s big wins for Mountain Xpress Best of WNC. Readers voted us first place in Local Events Information Source and Local Social Media Page to Follow for News, Events, and Local Happenings. Plus, we received third place in Local News Website and a tie for third in Local News Source. Thank you, all — we couldn’t have done it without you.

So now it’s time to celebrate. The Best of WNC Party will be happening tonight, Thursday, Sept. 7 at The Meadow at Highland Brewing. From 5 to 9 p.m., Ashley Heath, Firecracker Jazz Band, and DJ Lil Meow Meow will be cranking out the music + The Hop, El Kimchi, Melt Your Heart, and The Smokin’ Onion will be serving up the food. Don’t miss the fun and the best that WNC has to offer.
