‭(Hidden)‬ First Fridays

Roosevelt Row, CDC, organizes First Fridays, a free, all-ages event that draws thousands of attendees from dozens of city blocks downtown around Roosevelt Road and Grand Avenue.

First Friday festivities technically take place from 6:00 to 10:00 p.m. Depending on the time of year, you’ll likely see a handful of vendors setting up and foot traffic before 6:00 p.m. By 7:00 p.m., the sidewalks start filling up, and by 8 p.m., the event is in full swing. Some venues and vendors stay open beyond 10:00 p.m. If you want to linger longer, we recommend checking in advance or asking around as you go.

Timing tip: Arrive early to explore parking options or take the Valley Metro Rail (one-way, $2; all-day, $4) to the "Roosevelt/Central Ave" station.
