Why Downtown Membership Matters….

Nowhere identifies and unites the cultural, economic, and elemental values of a city like it’s downtown.

The Downtown Billings Association (DBA) serves as an advisory board to each of the Downtown Billings non-profit organizations. Through the DBA, each organization advocates to make the downtown Billings district a vibrant and thriving place; ripe for economic and civic opportunities. This work is accomplished through various community events, marketing campaigns, clean and safe programs, safety initiatives, economic development projects, and urban renewal efforts.

  • I believe thriving cities have a vibrant downtown.
  • I believe Downtowns are leading economic drivers for their cities.
  • I believe that a Downtown’s vibrancy is reflected in its high density.
