Downtown First Thursdays
October 3 @ 5:00 pm - 10:00 pm
San Francisco – are you ready to party downtown?
Into The Streets is excited to announce the launch of a FREE, monthly party taking place the first Thursday of every month from 5-10pm in the streets of Downtown San Francisco, in partnership with the Civic Joy Fund, The East Cut CBD, Yerba Buena CBD, and 111 Minna Gallery.
This new street party will run monthly from May 2, 2024 to April 3, 2025, bring thousands of people downtown, and feature an exciting lineup of music, performance, food, shopping, and art.
Get ready for disco in the streets, DJs, live music, drag, martial arts, fashion, street performances, and many more surprises.
The just-announced creative partners include a lineup of San Francisco’s most renowned and prolific music and culture producers: The Midway, Another Planet Entertainment, Noise Pop, KALW, OASIS Nightclub and Cabaret, Grace Towers, A Little x, and Yerba Buena Gardens Festival.
For the kick-off Downtown First Thursdays on May 2nd, we’re proud to be hosting KALW, broadcasting from the 111 Minna Gallery Zappa Room, and exhibiting the amazing artwork of Mike Davis and Michael Kerbow, two long-standing favorites of the gallery, who are displaying their latest pieces in two separate exhibitions: Survivors Of The Plague and Reversal Of Fortune, respectively. We’re excited to be a part of this Downtown revitalization project alongside a host of other creative partners, legendary bars, event spaces, and galleries. Together we’re poised to help reinvigorate downtown – utilizing the arts to remind people that creativity and imagination are what have historically brought people to San Francisco, and is the best way to do so again.
The fun takes place on 2nd Street (between Market and Folsom) and along neighboring alleyways on Jessie, Minna, and Natoma Streets. The event will also feature two outdoor bars on Minna and Natoma.
Grab a free ticket and register your email to be the first to know about what’s coming to downtown!
