I have listened to people and know one thing clearly, Vacaville is more than a place, it is a feeling! A feeling of community, family and opportunity. We are a vibrant city with a small town feel, a warm and welcoming experience for visitors and residents alike in this special place we call Vacaville!

Supporting Downtown Small Businesses While Preserving Our Rich History

Economic Support:

We champion local businesses by providing resources and opportunities that stimulate economic activity. From small shops to large enterprises, our BID creates a supportive environment that encourages growth and innovation.

Community Events:

Hosting a variety of community-centric events, we bring people together to celebrate the spirit of Vacaville. These events not only enhance the local cultural scene but also drive foot traffic and engagement within our downtown area.

 

Preservation and Modernization:

Balancing the preservation of our rich history with the need for modern enhancements, our BID works to maintain the historic charm of Downtown Vacaville while implementing thoughtful improvements that drive progress and revitalization.

The Downtown Vacaville Business Improvement District (BID) is following the Main Street America approach to downtown revitalization.  Downtown Vacaville enriches our community by supporting the vibrant economic activity of over 450 businesses across various industries and hosting community-centric local events. We are dedicated to preserving our rich history while driving economic growth and revitalization to ensure a balanced focus on preservation-based development and modern enhancements.

Through our dedicated efforts, the Downtown Vacaville BID ensures a vibrant, resilient, and inclusive downtown that reflects both our storied past and our ambitious future.
