About DNC
The Downtown Norfolk Council serves as the leading advocate for Downtown Norfolk and ensures Downtown’s position as the thriving and essential cultural, commercial and residential hub of Hampton Roads.
Locally-owned, independent restaurants and businesses are what make Downtown Norfolk the exciting, vibrant place that we know and love. Walking down the streets, you can't help but smile at the unique and inviting storefronts.
Help us celebrate and support the small businesses that make Downtown Norfolk special on Small Business Saturday, this Saturday, November 25th. Visit our Shop Small Welcome Station from 11am to 4pm inside Selden Market for a list of participating small businesses, treats, and free shopping totes.
