Friday Night on White (FNOW) returns to downtown Wake Forest on April 11 and continues the second Friday night of each month through September 12. This year’s FNOW promises to be bigger and better than ever thanks to a power-packed lineup featuring several of our area’s most popular bands.

Our 2025 concert series will feature Love Tribe (April 11); Sleeping Booty (May 9); Bounce! Party Band (June 13); The Punch Band (July 11); The Brickhouse Band (August 8); and Liquid Pleasure (September 12). Each concert is scheduled from 6-9 p.m. For complete information about FNOW, visit http://bit.ly/FridayNightonWhite.

 

Sponsorships

Only a few sponsorships remain available for FNOW which drew well over 50,000 people to downtown Wake Forest last year. Each sponsorship is guaranteed to bring attention and recognition to local businesses through on-site exhibit space, assorted television ads, printed posters, flyers, and banners, social media posts, email announcements, and more.

Attendance at each concert in 2024 ranged from 5,000 to 10,000, and organizers expect this year’s shows to continue drawing large numbers due to FNOW’s growing popularity throughout Northern Wake County and beyond.

The FNOW sponsorship application deadline is Tuesday, Feb. 4. For more information, contact Marketing & Business Relations Specialist Anna Bolton at 919-610-4916 or [email protected].
