Boise announces schedule for First Thursday, Alive After 5

The Downtown Boise Foundation has announced the 2022 schedule for First Thursday and Alive After 5.

These summer events help Idahoans come together and experience art, culture and entertainment in downtown Boise.

First Thursday

Beginning in May, First Thursday will be "supersized" to include roving performances, music and other activities. Community members can gather for artwork, shopping, dining and other entertainment.

Sponsored by Columbia Bank, First Thursday will run between 5 p.m. and 9 p.m. on the first Thursday of May, June, August, September and October.

“Thanks to DBA, First Thursday has become something that we celebrate every month," said Kendall Shelton, VP & NeighborHub manager Columbia Bank. "It is a day focused on bringing recognition to local downtown businesses and building community. We are so proud to be a part of everything that happens and love being able to support amazing events like this that perpetuate the amazing sense of community that Boise is known for.”

Alive After Five

Alive After Five, a free summer concert series, will return to Boise on June 15 in the Grove Plaza. 2022 marks the 35th anniversary of Alive After 5, and through a partnership with local music booking agency Duck Club, the Downtown Boise Foundation will be bringing a variety of bands to perform.

The lineup of musicians will be announced on Downtown Boise's social media pages.
