Lex Local Events is a Longmont-based event company focused on creating community-centered markets, pop-ups, and local experiences that bring people together while supporting small businesses, artists, makers, and food vendors throughout Colorado’s Front Range. Founded by Lexington Suiter, Lex Local Events was built from a passion for creating spaces where local businesses can thrive, families can connect, and communities can experience the creativity and talent that exists right in their own neighborhoods.
Known for events like the First Fridays Makers Market in Downtown Longmont, Lex Local Events creates family-friendly and dog-friendly community gatherings featuring local vendors, live music, food trucks, craft beverages, interactive activities, and unique shopping experiences. Every event is intentionally designed to feel welcoming, accessible, and community-driven — whether guests stay for a quick walk-through or spend the entire evening enjoying live entertainment, local food, and small business shopping.
Lex Local Events believes shopping local has a real impact. Every market and pop-up is created to help support local entrepreneurs, strengthen community connections, increase visibility for small businesses, and encourage residents to invest back into their local economy. From seasonal street markets and brewery pop-ups to holiday events and city festivals, Lex Local Events is committed to building experiences that feel authentic, vibrant, and uniquely local to Longmont and surrounding Colorado communities.
