Last year’s event was held virtually as a result of COVID-19, so this will be the first time this event will be held in person since May 9, 2019.

Organized and run by the DWC, Girls’ Night Out provides women with an opportunity to walk around downtown Westfield visiting local businesses for a day and evening of special shopping events, refreshments, entertainment, gifts, sales & discounts.
