Future of Downtown 2025

Welcome to the Future of Downtown, presented by the Downtown Austin Alliance on May 27. As downtown´s steward and champion, we are bringing the best parts of downtown to ACL Live to celebrate more than 30 years of the Downtown Austin Alliance with our community partners, stakeholders, members and future leaders!
We will share key insights from our annual State of Downtown report and introduce our new CEO & President, Davon Barbour, as the keynote speaker for the evening. Join us as we showcase the vibe of Austin through local artists and rockin´ musicians; enjoy light bites, drinks and live music.
Every year, the Downtown Austin Alliance recognizes dedicated people who make significant contributions or outstanding improvements to our downtown community at our annual Future of Downtown event. Recognition will be given to awardees in two categories: Meredith Powell Award for Community Culture & Downtown Vision Award.
