This holiday season, Asheville locals and visitors are invited to sip, stroll, and support a great cause with the launch of the 12 Bars of Christmas, a citywide holiday collaboration benefiting MANNA FoodBank. The event brings together beloved local bars, festive spirits, and generous hearts to help fight hunger across WNC and support businesses still recovering from Helene.
Join the fun by visiting any participating venue and making a $15 donation to receive an official 12 Bars of Christmas Passport. 100% of all passport proceeds go directly to MANNA FoodBank. With a passport in hand, the holiday adventure begins. Those who get a stamp from all 12 locations will receive a 2025 limited-edition keepsake ornament (while supplies last).
