May First Friday Locals' Appreciation Party
One of Silverthorne’s most popular First Friday events, the Locals’ Appreciation Party sponsored by Locals Liquors, will be held on Friday, May 3 on the Silverthorne Performing Arts Center lawn from 4:30 to 8:30 p.m. The event will feature free beer, wine and liquor tasting and live music from Stereo Transmission and the Chris Bauer Band.
While the May First Friday event is free, community members are strongly encouraged to make donations to local non-profits. In years past, the Locals’ Appreciation Party has raised more than $40,000 for non-profit organizations.
Food will be available for purchase and all food vendors will be donating 5% of their revenue to the non-profits benefiting from May First Friday.
2024 Non-Profit Donation Recipients
- Family & Intercultural Resource Center
- Building Hope
- Mountain Dreamers
- Theater SilCo – Afterschool Program
- Friends of the Summit County Library

In conjunction with May First Friday, Locals Liquors is hosting an online silent auction featuring highly coveted bourbons and whiskeys, with 100% of the proceeds going to non-profit organizations. The auction is open now through May 5. Each year, Locals Liquors receives specially allocated bourbons and whiskeys from their partner distributors, most of which are donated to charity fundraisers, including the Locals’ Appreciation Party.
