Downtown Palatine Business Association (DPBA) member businesses are thrilled to once again open their doors on Friday, May 6 from 5-9 p.m. for the annual Girls on the Town event! Area residents can ring in spring while exploring the unique and eclectic businesses within Palatine’s quaint downtown, while simultaneously supporting local small businesses. The DPBA members look forward to showcasing their wares and other offerings, along with specials, sales and raffles – in addition to appetizers, sweet treats and wine tastings at select locations!
Get a group together to check out the DPBA members, which include gift shops, salons and spas, boutique clothing and accessories/apparel, along with fine kitchenware, cooking classes, demonstrations and more! Reunite with friends and get ready for spring while you enjoy a night out on the town!
“Our historic and walkable downtown provides the perfect backdrop as the world opens back up, and guests can also pick up something special for mom for Mother’s Day,” said DPBA Vice President Larry Schroth. “Despite our event’s name, all community members are welcome to participate and take advantage of the many special offers our local businesses will be featuring during this very popular event.”
Passports are required for entry into the event and are $10. They can be purchased on the night of the event at any participating location. Guests can also purchase raffle tickets to win one of two gift baskets filled with gift certificates from DPBA members and area businesses
