About this event:

*Edited*
Gadsden’s First Friday is adapting to Mother Nature’s challenges! Due to the forecast of severe weather and intense heat, we’re making some changes to keep everyone safe while still celebrating. Our streets will remain open to traffic, allowing for smoother flow and easier access to cool spots. Classic car enthusiasts, don’t worry! You can still showcase your beautiful rides in regular parking spots and lots throughout downtown. Pedestrians, we’ve got your safety in mind – please stick to the sidewalks as you explore our vibrant downtown scene. Despite the weather curveballs, we’re determined to keep the First Friday spirit alive! Come downtown to enjoy the atmosphere, support local businesses, and admire vintage vehicles while staying cool and safe. Remember, Gadsden’s community spirit shines bright, rain or shine!

Don’t forget to include a visit to the Gadsden Museum of Art too!

The guidelines for First Friday include no pets, no personal coolers or glass containers, no skateboards or roller blades and no advertising or fundraising. Additional parking is available at Foote Brothers Carpet One at 2nd and Locust Streets.

Following First Friday, the fun continues with Nash County playing the Summer Concert Series at the Amp. Both events are free to attend.
