Friday nights go live in downtown Springfield

DSI

If you like the downtown Springfield holiday walks in the winter, merchants are offering a similar experience without the chilly weather.

Starting July 11 at 5 p.m., Friday Night Live will provide an opportunity to explore local shops, restaurants, and venues, hosting a range of live music, food & drink specials, family fun, and late-night shopping.

The events will happen Friday evenings through Aug. 1.
