First Fridays
Friday nights in the summer are made for spending time close to home, enjoying the beautiful weather, and unwinding from the long week. Why go anywhere else but Downtown Castle Rock?
On the first Friday of each month, June through August, head to Festival Park to enjoy live music, food trucks, cocktails and kid activities. The fun starts at 5 p.m. Live music is from 6 to 9 p.m.
First Friday — June 2

Buoys of Summer
The Buoys of Summer pay tribute to the smooth-sailing, silk-stocking SoCal sounds of the 1970s and early 1980s. Characterized by memorable melodies and polished production, this music often features a breezy tempo, with simple lyrics flowing through a gentle current, and Michael McDonald on backing vocals. Acts like Kenny Loggins, the Doobie Brothers, and Steely Dan define the genre, along with hits by less prolific artists, like Ace, Rupert Holmes, and Ambrosia.

Doublewide

Doublewide is an American Southern Rock/Country Music act consisting of an impressive ensemble of multitalented singers and musicians. They perform a variety of classic cult country mainstays and current Nashville hits along with an occasional classic rock anthem thrown in for some arena rock thunder.
The band originally hails from Los Angeles CA but is best known for their rowdy annual 10 day run at the National Finals Rodeo held every December in Las Vegas Nevada. With both male and female lead vocalists Doublewide is able to cover anything and everything needed to get the party rockin’!
