There's a lot happening in Downtown Chapel Hill -- restaurants, shops, art galleries, museums, and (of course) the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Downtown starts at the university and extends north and east past Franklin Street, the main drag through downtown. As the heart of the neighborhood, Franklin Street has it all -- great boutiques, trendy restaurants, brick-paved sidewalks, bike racks, mature trees, and a dash of history to tie it all together.
The neighborhood's seamless blend of public art and open green space help create the fun, funky atmosphere that sets the perfect backdrop for the live concerts, art walks, outdoor movie nights, and pub crawls that take place here. Some must-see events include Festifall Arts Festival, an exciting event that includes an artists' market, live music, food, hands-on activities, and more. Being so close to UNC, Downtown Chapel Hill also hosts events like Tar Heel Downtown, a rollicking event that takes places before the first home game and involves the Tar Heels cheerleaders and marching band.
