Grand Forks Downtown Development Association advocates for, promotes, grows, and improves the downtown community.

Through DDA’s numerous events and activities that attract visitors to downtown and their advocacy for good urbanist principles to grow the downtown area, there have been major investments to the community that provide many opportunities. The DDA has been at the forefront of innovation in the heart of the Grand Forks/East Grand Forks bringing ideas from paper to our streets and activating the underutilized spaces. 

Whether you are dancing at concert, shopping at your favorite stores, having dinner at one of our family owned restaurants, or biking on the greenway, you are contributing to the vibrancy of our amazing downtown area.
