From April to September each year Downtown Gainesville comes alive every Friday night from 7-9 p.m. as our local and regional bands and performing arts are showcased under the stars. Each year thousands come out to enjoy the FREE live concerts and shows in a family friendly environment. Free Fridays takes place at Bo Diddley Plaza!

Rock out the old and ring in the new with your crowd of friends in Downtown Gainesville! Celebrate the New Year with music at this annual favorite at Bo Diddley Plaza. The free concert will begin at 8:00 p.m. and run until 12:30 a.m. At the stroke of midnight the sounds of noisemakers passed out to the audience earlier in the evening will chorus in the New Year.
