In light of the COVID-19 epidemic, many of our DBA businesses will be impacted. Resources are available through the City/Chamber Greenhouse: https://stpetegreenhouse.com/prepare/
Founded in 1973, the Downtown Business Association (DBA) is a non-profit membership association representing the arts, retail, restaurants, banking, utilities, city government and other various types of businesses, with a common interest of strengthening the downtown area. We promote downtown St. Petersburg as a vibrant, safe and friendly waterfront environment with outstanding entertainment, cultural attractions, educational facilities, retail, art galleries, medical care resources, architectural design and business opportunities.
MONTHLY MEMBERSHIP MEETINGS
Our membership meetings are held the 3rd Wednesday of each month (except July and December), from 7:30 - 9:00 a.m., at various locations hosted by member businesses. Meetings are designed to provide an opportunity to share important information about your business, as well as offering opportunities to learn more about our community, area events, customer service, merchandising and more.

Fundraiser for Ronald mcdonald house
For years the Downtown Business Association and volunteer members have donated their time and money to host Taco Tuesday for families staying at the Ronald McDonald House. Due to COVID-19, it's not possible for us to cook on-site at this time. Instead, we are showing our support by raising funds to purchase meals from one of our member restaurants to feed each family.
Please help us reach our goal of $500!

Every so often, we have an after-hours social gathering with no formal agenda, just an opportunity for members and prospective members to mix & mingle and get to know one another better. These events are held at various member businesses, particularly our restaurant and bar members for whom hosting an early morning meeting isn't ideal.
We hope to see you at our next event
