Marketing & Promotions
We want everyone to know about our programs and all the great things happening in Downtown through advertising, events, reports and publications, branding, social media, digital communications, and public relations. Our efforts engage a wide variety of platforms to help people engage with vibrant and diverse Downtown experiences.
We love Downtown Baltimore and we want every resident, employee, and tourist to love it as much as we do.
That’s why we work hard year in and year out to program our Downtown neighborhoods with exciting events. Together with Visit Baltimore, we produce Baltimore Restaurant Week. Without Downtown Partnership there would be no First Thursday’s Concerts, Dollar or Less Days, or annual Monument Lighting in Mt. Vernon.

Learn About Downtown Neighborhoods"Unlike most major cities, the neighborhoods in Baltimore have a strong sense of community..."
“The reason why I moved to Baltimore was that I loved the architecture of the homes. From the Marble stoops to the detailed Cornices. It was captivating to me. Also, unlike most major cities, the neighborhoods in Baltimore have a strong sense of community. Baltimore has its own financial hub and is only a hour away from the Nation’s capital which was a plus as well. The amazing seafood selection finalized my decision to move.”
— Jay G., Downtown Baltimore Resident
