Our DownTown

Downtown culture reflects each community.

In Grande Prairie, our city centre truly is a hub: a place to connect with friends, to peruse local shops, and to receive a variety of services, from health, beauty, and wellness amenities to legal and financial advice and assistance.

Best of all? Our main street is constantly evolving. With cute shops and cafes on every corner – not to mention tons of activities and community events – the city centre really is at the heart of it all.

Why Locate Downtown?

As a business, it’s important to be in the heart of the city. Not only is Grande Prairie’s city centre home to significant urban events, as well as entertainment venues, but it also serves as an active community hub. From shopping to dining and all those shops in between, downtown is the first stop for much of Grande Prairie.

As a resident, living in the city centre means convenience. With quick, easy access to every service imaginable – including medical, professional, legal and financial services, as well as retail and grocery shops – living downtown just makes sense.

Beyond that, the DownTown Association helps create a clean and safe environment for the benefit of all businesses in the city centre and their valuable customers. With multiple committees aimed at providing the most thorough and ranged services possible, the DownTown Association maintains the respectable, charming environment for all local and regional visitors.

The Best of Downtown

We do a little bit of everything: arts and culture, entertainment, and annual events, as well as provide the space and opportunity for businesses of all trades, from legal, medical, health, wellness, beauty, and financial establishments to local retail shops.

Downtown is an experience: whether you’re looking for community socialization, an urban shopping experience, some arts and culture, or just a little me-time, you’ll find a place here for it here.
