The State of Downtown is the Asheville Downtown Association’s annual meeting bringing together Downtown stakeholders, business leaders, and community partners for a comprehensive look at the year ahead.

This event features remarks from the Mayor and County Commission Chair, along with an in-depth update on the state of the Downtown economy and key insights from ADA’s annual stakeholder survey. Together, these perspectives provide a clear snapshot of current conditions, emerging trends, and shared priorities shaping Downtown Asheville.

Lunch is included with registration. Tickets are $25 for ADA members and $35 for non-members. We look forward to gathering in conversation, reflection, and collaboration around the future of Downtown.
