Two big weeks ahead. Come downtown.
THIRD THURSDAY — MAY 21 | 6–9 PM | FREE
This Thursday, Third Thursday is back — and May's theme is rodeo. That means vendors, good energy, and a stretch of downtown that feels alive in the way it only does on a warm May evening. It's free, it's outside, and it's exactly the kind of night worth putting on your calendar. No tickets. No cover. Just show up.
3RD ANNUAL NAMPTON'S BEER FESTIVAL — MAY 29 | 5–10 PM
Next week, we close out May with one of downtown's favorite nights of the year. The 3rd Annual Nampton's Beer Festival runs from 5–10 PM on Friday, May 29th. Five hours of craft beer, good people, and a commemorative cup that earns its place in your cabinet. The craft beer experience is curated by Heather and Ryan, owners of Prefunk — so you know the lineup will be worth showing up for.
Admission is free, but you’ll need to purchase tokens for beer samples.
Tickets are on sale now at https://downtownnampa.com/2026-beer-fest-tickets
Buy them before you go.
Here's why: If past years are any indication there will be a line at the event to purchase cups and tokens. Pre-purchasing means you skip most of that wait and walk straight into the fun.
Two options are available:
Cup + Tokens — Your commemorative cup plus a set of tokens to redeem for beer samples all night. This is the full Beer Fest experience.
Cup Only — Your commemorative cup without tokens. A solid option ifyou're going with someone who bought tokens and you want to split theirs between you. You both get a cup, you share the beers. Buy online. Skip the line. Drink sooner.
