The Downtown Lafayette Business Owners Association (DLBOA) is a non-profit organization representing the community of businesses and organizations located in the downtown area of Lafayette, Indiana. Our mission is to improve the downtown experience and create a welcoming, inclusive space for residents, visitors, and entrepreneurs. Through events, economic development efforts, and strong community partnerships, we are building a better, brighter future for Downtown Lafayette.
Each year, the DLBOA hosts signature events like Summer on the Square, A Merry Main Street Market, and Destination Downtown, welcoming thousands of attendees from across the region and featuring more than 70 local vendors per event. These events do more than celebrate our community, they generate foot traffic, drive economic growth, and build connections between businesses and the people they serve.
We invite you to join us in this momentum by becoming a sponsor for our 2025 event season. Sponsoring a DLBOA event is more than a marketing opportunity, it’s an investment in a shared vision. Your sponsorship directly supports the continued growth and spirit of our downtown community by helping us:
Host inclusive, high-quality events that attract diverse audiences,
Promote small business visibility and success,
And fund beautification and public improvement projects like the Main Street string light installation, which transformed our downtown into a more welcoming and vibrant space.
Our sponsorship tiers are designed to accommodate businesses of all sizes, offering visibility, engagement, and recognition in return for your generous support. Whether you’re a legacy business or a newcomer on the block, your contribution helps build the downtown we all envision and one that thrives year-round and continues to inspire.
Together, with the support of partners like the City of Lafayette, Greater Lafayette Commerce, and Visit Lafayette-West Lafayette, we're shaping a downtown that is lively, resilient, and rooted in collaboration.
