First Fridays in Downtown Atascadero!

The City of Atascadero is excited to announce the upcoming First Friday event on April 7th in Downtown from 5:30 to 7:30 pm. The entertainment for this First Friday will be the Stellar Band, a group of talented musicians who have been performing at festivals, local venues, and private parties for over 15 years. The band will be playing a mix of Classic Rock Hits and Fleetwood Mac Covers that span the decades and appeal to multigenerational audiences.

In addition to the music, the Downtown retail stores will be launching the #ATOWNDOWNTOWNPASSPORT. To enter the competition, all you need to do is get six stamps from any of the 35 participating businesses, and you will be entered to win a shopping spree. The Streets of Vintage Artisan Market will also be joining us along with a variety of food vendors, including Bear City Social, Paradise Shaved Ice, Mary’s Cuisine, and Zen Dog.

The First Friday events are a series of monthly events that have been planned throughout the year. Each First Friday will offer a different passport, and there will be a variety of events such as the Downtown Pub Crawl, the Sip & Shop paired with Tamale Food Booths & Trucks, and the Concert in Downtown at The Plaza with DeJaVu Band, among others.

The NEW #ATOWNDOWNTOWNPASSPORT will be featured each month starting with the April First Friday. To participate, get 6 stamps from 35 participating locations, no purchase required! All completed passports will be entered into a drawing to win a Downtown shopping spree. Be the first to turn in the passport to any participating Downtown retailer that First Friday evening and receive a free gift item (while supplies last)!

The First Friday events are free to attend and will kick off between 5:30 and 6 pm. When there is a concert, the public is encouraged to bring a low-back chair. The City of Atascadero would like to give a special thank you to our Presenting Sponsors, Barley & Boar Brewhouse (open soon!), Cielo Ristorante & Rooftop Bar and Street Side Ale House!
