urban nights

Walk on downtown's creative side!

Our fall Urban Nights event will take place on Friday, September 10 from 5 to 10 p.m. More than 30,000 people are expected to pack the streets, so come join the fun and experience your downtown!

What is Urban Nights?
Urban Nights is a free event that showcases downtown's dining, nightlife, art, music, retail, urban living options and more twice a year - once in the spring and once in the fall. The event has been described as a huge, all-inclusive street party and open house for downtown, with something for everyone to enjoy.

Businesses and restaurants offer special discounts, artists and galleries open their doors to the public, musicians and entertainers of all kinds perform throughout the center city, and downtown's most impressive urban living options are open for tours. More than 100 creative places and spaces are part of the event, including locations throughout downtown, the Oregon Arts District and the Wright-Dunbar Business Village.

The best way to see as much as possible during Urban Nights is to walk, so remember to wear comfortable shoes! Free trolleys will be provided by the Greater Dayton RTA to help you reach venues in more distant areas such as Wright-Dunbar.
