Welcome to the official website of Downtown Eau Claire!

Downtown Eau Claire is about authenticity and discovery, without the cookie-cutter options found in alternate destinations. It's a place that is about people, what they do and what they like. Downtown Eau Claire offers visitors the arts, biking, classes, culture, food, dining, entertainment, farmers market, music, shopping - the entire spectrum of living. Ready for discovery. Ready to be called home. Or work. But definitely Nothing Artificial.

Many stopped to take their photo by the Creepy Coffin and others got their scare in the Tunnel of Terror. Thank you to all the downtown businesses who participated this year!
