Davis Downtown

Davis Downtown Powered By The People. We invite students, residents and visitors to come shop, eat & vibe in downtown Davis.
(564)

As the heart of the Davis community, the downtown is a wonderful destination that is powered by unique businesses and by you! It's cycle-centric, supports an active lifestyle and has direct links to UC Davis, the arboretum and train station. Ask anyone what makes Davis special, and you will certainly hear, “It’s about the people.” This is particularly relevant to our downtown, as the personal shop

ping experience is something not typically found in big box stores. Downtown Davis is powered by the people—shop, café and business owners, employees, students, families and visitors. The Davis Downtown Business Association (DDBA) is a steward of the downtown. Our team's energies and funds go toward programs that benefit our businesses directly and also indirectly through events, initiatives and improvements toward our downtown environment and aesthetics. Your support of the downtown and the DDBA helps our community retain its charm and economic vitality. To learn more about the downtown and the DDBA visit www.DavisDowntown.com

Today we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their sacrifice made the freedoms and moments we enjoy every day possible, and we are deeply grateful.

As the community gathers with friends and family this weekend, Memorial Day also serves as a reminder to reflect, appreciate, and support one another.

Whether you are spending the day relaxing in Central Park, sharing a meal downtown, or simply enjoying time with loved ones, we hope everyone has a safe and meaningful holiday.

From all of us in Downtown Davis, thank you to those who served and especially to those who made the ultimate sacrifice 🇺🇸
