The buzz around Downtown Bay City is that there is so much to see and do! The shops are ever changing their specialty merchandise for the season. Check out what's new and see what's on sale! And, there is always something deliciously new to try on just about every restaurant menu!

The Downtown area in Bay City is also host to a number of concerts, very cool car shows, art and cultural events, stage shows, movies, and so much more throughout the year! You can pack a lot of fun in a day or a weekend while you are here.

Downtown Bay City is also improving its appearance. The addition of new condominiums and brownstones enhance our residential area. Check out our latest changes and additions — brick sidewalks, microparks and a proposed riverside waterfall park.
