PLAY 

A playground- for adults and kids alike!

What to do, what to do... See a show? Go to a baseball game? Hear some live music? Grab a drink? How about all of the above?

York is full of possibilities to fill a weekend and even the occasional weeknight out. Throughout the year, Downtown Inc hosts First Fridays around the city, which are a great way to get a taste of downtown. Also, don't miss our SPLASH! Summer Concert Series in the summer at Foundry Park. Check out our listings below, but also be sure to visit our calendar page for the latest goings-on. See you around town!
