Main Street Now serves as the premier national conference for local leaders working to advance economic opportunity and improve quality of life in historic downtowns and commercial districts. The annual event welcomes 1,800+ community leaders from small towns, midsized cities and urban neighborhood business districts who are professionals in preservation-based, economic development and community revitalization. Join us for three days of education sessions, special events, field sessions, and opportunities to explore the host city, Richmond, VA!

Produced jointly by the National Main Street Center (NMSC) and the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD), the Main Street Expo is an adjunct to the professional and educational sessions held during the Main Street Now Conference, and it’s meant to supplement such sessions by showcasing various types of products, services and information available to attendees. Excitingly, exhibitor displays and offerings will be catered to the professional and practical needs of NMSC members!

The conference’s Main Street expo will be a central gathering spot and the best place to develop relationships with the Main Street network. Attendees rely on the products and services from companies to do their best work, and that’s why it’s incredibly important to take advantage of this unparalleled opportunity to market your services and make valuable connections with local leaders. Show booth registration doesn’t open until January 2022, but interested exhibitors should check out the 2022 Exhibitor Prospectus to learn more!
