Welcome to downtown Terrace, BC
Located in the heart of northwestern BC, the Terrace Downtown Improvement Area (TDIA) is dedicated to creating a vibrant, safe, and accessible downtown where residents and visitors can shop, work, and connect.
Our mission is to foster downtown Terrace as the heart and soul of the community—celebrating its cultural diversity, rich heritage, natural beauty, and thriving local economy.​Established in 2011 through a City of Terrace bylaw and renewed in 2022, the TDIA is funded by property owners within the Business Improvement Area (BIA).
We collaborate with partners like the City of Terrace and Tourism Terrace to support initiatives that bring people downtown, such as the annual Shop Local program and community events like Concerts in the Park during Riverboat Days.​Our priority areas include downtown revitalization, long-term beautification projects, safety and security advocacy, public art initiatives, and grant coordination to support local businesses.
