when does first friday end

“First Friday” usually refers to events or observances that happen on the first Friday of each month, and they typically end the same day they start, not at some later calendar date.

General idea

• In most cities, First Friday events are scheduled for one evening, with posted start and end times (for example, 5 pm–11 pm or 6 pm–9 pm).

• Once that day’s event time is over, “First Friday” for that month is considered ended, and the next one will be the first Friday of the following month.

Examples of end times

• In Las Vegas’s arts district, the First Friday art walk is listed as running roughly from 5 pm to 11 pm on the first Friday date.

• At the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, “First Fridays” are advertised as 6:00 pm–9:00 pm on select first Fridays, ending that same evening.

If you meant the calendar “first Friday”

• On a calendar, the “first Friday” is just that one specific date; it effectively “ends” at 11:59 pm local time before Saturday begins.
• The next day (Saturday) is no longer part of “first Friday,” even if the same weekend continues with other events.

If you tell what city, venue, or group’s First Friday you care about, a more precise end time can be given.
