On the first Friday of each month, downtown Grand Haven offers a fun and lively evening for locals and visitors. From 5 to 8 p.m. in June, September, October, November, and December, participating shops, restaurants, and bars open their doors with something special in store. (The event takes a short break in July and August to make way for the 4th of July and Coast Guard Festival celebrations.)
Each business adds its unique touch to the night—whether it’s live music, tasty treats and drinks, exclusive sales, artist pop-ups, or a few surprises along the way. It’s a relaxed and enjoyable way to start the weekend and explore all that downtown has to offer. Adding to the experience, Gallery Uptown hosts its First Friday Open House during the event, featuring new art exhibits. Whether discovering a new favorite spot or simply enjoying the atmosphere, First Fridays are a great excuse to spend a little extra time in the heart of Grand Haven!
