What an incredible season! Thank you to every single local maker, creator, restaurateur, musician, small business owner, and community member who helped make our First Fridays Summer season truly spectacular. We love celebrating and bringing out the community to support all of your hard work, and this growing event is truly the best way to experience our beautiful Downtown, differently and authentically.
Market on Main
A monthly celebration of our community’s movers and shakers, creatives and performers, and local businesses.
The “First Fridays Market on Main” continues to grow as we steadily host a rotating list of entertainers, makers, and artists offering handmade items for sale. Each month is different as we bring in more and more vendors and makers to sell in the Market! Find everything from hand-crafted bags and jewelry to homemade dog treats and fun activities hosted at select booths.
Look for the 2026 Market on Main Application in early spring!
First Friday happens on the first Friday from May-October.
In addition to free parking along Main Street, there are 7 free public parking lots located within the downtown area.
First Fridays are completely free to attend. Each First Fridays event will feature free entertainment, and games courtesy of Visit Alamosa. First Fridays also features Art, Shopping, and Dining deals, plan to spend according to your interests.
That’s up to each artist or business but it can’t hurt to have both just in case.
Absolutely! Some merchants even have special low-cost or free activities (like sidewalk chalk) for kiddos.
The dense core of First Fridays is located Downtown. First Fridays Headquarters is located at 627 Main Street -this is where you can get the latest information on the event.
