Take Valentine's to the Next Level —
This February, rediscover the cozy joy of winter in the heart of the city—your city.
Join friends, family, and neighbors for Portland’s first-ever Winter Staycation, a partnership with the Portland Winter Lights Festival. Choose from two weekends of celebration of everything that makes winter in our downtown vibrant: Blazers and Winterhawks games, acclaimed theatre productions, live concerts, intimate dining, and specialized local retail. All this amidst the Winter Light Festival’s unique artistic light installations, pop up performances, and activities for all ages.
Book a stay at a participating downtown hotel. Dine out. Show up. Shop like your city deserves more. This is a weekend designed to activate the city from within—by Portlanders, for Portlanders.
Retailers, restaurants, and local event creators will roll out unique offerings and one-of-a-kind experiences. It’s a chance to remind ourselves, and to show others, what’s possible downtown.
Let us know you’re in. Rally your friends, coworkers, and communities to take part. Together, we can build momentum and reimagine downtown Portland as the destination it’s always been.
Thousands of Portlanders activated downtown for our first Staycation Weekend in September, reveling in the live music from PDX Pop Now, Timbers soccer, Downtown Sunday Parkways, PDX Geek Week, and a myriad of fun experiences.
We were all inspired to experience our vibrant city with fresh eyes and fill downtown hotel rooms. Let’s do it again, put our money and our weekend plans where our heart is:
A BRIGHT FUTURE FOR
