  • Things To Do

Can't reach the beach? Here's the next best thing — August’s First Friday in Lansdale! Don your Speedos, bikinis and flip-flops, and join Discover Lansdale for the next First Friday. 

It’s a Shellabration, with a sand-and-sun theme, Soundwave on the Main Stage and DJ Chris at Railroad Plaza. Plus, as always, kids' entertainment, delicious eats, soft drinks and beer garden, great contests and prices, and sooooo much more.

All the favorite First Friday activities are back for the event’s 14th season, along with a few innovations we hope the borough and its visitors will enjoy. 

Every First Friday is spotlighting themed nonprofits and organizations keyed to the theme. This month’s featured organizations: Laurel House and Laurel’s Loft.

RR Plaza DJ: Chris Evans

Balloons: Scott Myers, Myers Designs
