Uptown Friday Night

On Friday, July 25, 2025, many of the Uptown shops along San Marco Avenue stay open past their normal closing time for the St. Augustine Uptown Friday Night event. This Friday's theme is titled "Dog Days of the Summer," where everyone is encouraged to bring their furry friends and visit the pet-friendly shops down the avenue.

The Uptown neighborhood of shops and eateries begins at Grove Avenue and stretches north to the roundabout. The area has shops filled with funky and vintage items, home decor, jewelry, antiques, clothing, art, and eateries offering food and drink, from coffee and beer to elevated dining and small plate fare.

One evening a quarter, from 5:00 to 9:00 p.m., many of these businesses stay open and invite people to shop, visit, enjoy culinary delights, and listen to live music at select locations. A scavenger hunt will also take place during the festivities.

Participating businesses are subject to change, and can include: Spinster Abbott's, Jenna Alexander Studio, Uptown Pizza, Materialistic, Luli's Cupcakes, Soho Bohemian, Smith Works Studios, Hot Box, St. Augustine Scoop, Old Town Timber, and Coastal Traders.

Admission: Free

When: From 5:00 to 9:00 p.m. on Friday, July 25, 2025.

Where: Along San Marco Avenue, from Grove Avenue.
