Downtown Palatine Business Association Brings Back Sidewalk Sales!
The Downtown Palatine Business Association (DPBA) is excited to be bringing back their annual sidewalk sales after a challenging year for business due to the pandemic. Shoppers can enjoy end of season closeouts, special offers and other bargains as they kick off the (much anticipated) start of summer Thursday, June 3 through Saturday, June 5. Businesses will be open at varying times, by location.
"We invite area residents to safely take advantage of some pretty amazing deals offered by our members," said Mica Mahler, president of the DPBA. "Now that we are able to open up more, it's so important that we all support our small business communities to help us get through these challenging times."
The downtown Palatine small businesses and local organizations help to make the village a charming and walkable shopping destination, with a wide variety of products and services available. Businesses participating in this year's sidewalk sales offer cooking classes and kitchenware, designer consignment and new clothing and apparel, music lessons and instruments, unique gifts and home decor and a walk-through Palatine's rich history, as well as food, libations, entertainment and much more.
