Friday evening will start it off right and the fun will just be beginning after you cheer the limos on.

On Friday, May 1, 2026, the final First Friday Concert on the Square for the springtime, in partnership with The Arts Association in Newton County, will kick off at 6:30 p.m. with Duke Smith, weather permitting! Bring a blanket, towel, or chair, and enjoy a Friday evening in downtown Covington while listening to live music.

And if you're around the area from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m., cheer on our NCSS Special Education Department as they head out to "Night to Remember" in their limos for a special night of celebration at Legion Field! Leaving from Covington United Methodist at the corner of Monticello and Conyers Street, they will travel Conyers Street to East Street to Floyd Street to Mill Street. 🚗 Important: Don’t head out after just one round—each limo will make multiple trips from Covington FUMC to Legion Field. You’ll also see a decorated lift bus along the route!

It's a full Friday on May 1, 2026 for community fun in Covington.🌤🌻🎵
