From April 7-9, 2025 local leaders from across the country gathered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, for the 2025 Main Street Now Conference. Over the course of three days, a record-breaking 2171 Main Streeters from across the country (and world) gathered in The City of Brotherly Love to participate in 100+ dynamic educational sessions led by over 190 place professionals, 24 immersive mobile workshops, and countless moments to connect and celebrate.
Huge thanks to everyone who came and to our co-host partners, sponsors, exhibitors, and volunteers for making this year’s conference possible. No matter your role in the Main Street movement or your home base, we hope that you had a great time connecting with peers from across our network, learning the latest in preservation-based economic development, and getting energized to take your organization’s Main Street efforts to the next level.
