NFO 2025 – Find Your Spot – Explore Downtown Greenville

Just steps from the Tar River and close to both Main Campus and the Health Sciences Campus, Greenville’s Downtown District has something for everyone. This historic area is packed with restaurants, breweries, shops, museums, galleries, and more, including a scenic 9-mile greenway space and endless indoor and outdoor entertainment options.

During the football season, don’t miss Freeboot Friday at Five Points Plaza. This popular event provides free live music and entertainment from 5-8 pm on home football Fridays. Or explore the arts scene during First Friday ArtWalk, when downtown galleries showcase new exhibits. Getting around is easy with the free Emerald Express Trolley, which makes a full downtown loop! Prefer live performances? Catch a show at the historic State Theatre.
