On the First Friday of every month a bunch of York City businesses (and restaurants) stay open until at least 9 P.M. so you can enjoy a night out and about in downtown York knowing there will be plenty of things to do and venues to visit. At the moment we are not as active as we had been in the past with staying open late on Fridays. Melissa and my kiddos are 14 & 18 and we are enjoying these nights together at home. Nevertheless we encourage you to visit downtown on a First Friday, see local artwork and take the opportunity to experience local entertainment, food and activities in this cool city.

Download and print a brochure by visiting www.downtownyorkpa.com a week prior to the First Friday you plan to enjoy. Each door you walk through will offer a unique experience and feature art, music, products and services that are second to none, brought to you by local families. Parking is free at metered spots and in the Central Market Garage after 5 p.m.
