The Downtown Niagara Falls, NY landscape is changing. With new hotels, restaurants and other attractions joining a host of well-established venues in our district, there are greater opportunities to network, collaborate and grow local business. Membership in the Downtown Niagara Falls Business Association (DNFBA) allows for this collective growth by furthering its mission “to stimulate, enhance and nurture and inviting atmosphere for civic, cultural, social and economic activities in Downtown Niagara Falls, NY.”

Over the past year, we have experienced a new energy within the DNFBA, with new member engagement, consistent monthly meetings with featured guest speakers, topics and presentations that affect our entire district. We have also recently changed our bylaws in order to include a fourth non-voting group of membership for the first time in our history, which includes media and tourism outlets and festival organizers who conduct business in our district. These members may or may not have offices located directly in the Downtown district.
