Join for the 69th Annual Easter Sunrise Service, hosted this year at Tryon International Equestrian Center (TIEC). The stadium provides beautiful east-facing views of the sunrise out towards the Blue Ridge Foothills and Piedmont. Although Chimney Rock at Chimney Rock State Park remains temporarily closed following Hurricane Helene, this cherished Western North Carolina tradition continues nearly seventy years later!

The sunrise service will begin at 6:40 AM, led by Village Foothills Chapel and accompanied by the Chimney Rock Bagpipe Band.

Afterwards, enjoy family-friendly activities and dining throughout the day:

• Coffee and breakfast bar following service
• Bunch at Legends Club (reservation only)
• Easter egg hunts at 12:30 and 2:30 PM
• Shop WNC Main Street from 8 AM – 4 PM
• Chimney Rock animal encounters

TIEC also offers a variety of pet-friendly lodging options for those looking to make a weekend of the event.

Service begins at 6:40 AM.
Arrive as early as 5:30 AM to find seating. Sunrise is at 6:50 AM.
