Welcome to historic Downtown Ogden!
Nestled along the Wasatch Mountains, Ogden is home to more than 200 locally owned and independent businesses. When you visit Ogden, expect award-winning shopping and dining, as well as world-class arts, culture and community events.
Ogden is well known for its close proximity to top-tier outdoor recreation. Hiking, biking, fishing, skiing, snowboarding and more are all minutes away from the heart of the downtown.
After you finish enjoying the outdoors, explore Ogden’s urban side. With the Utah Transit Authority (UTA) front runner, busses and free Ogden Trolley, there are endless ways to navigate the downtown and travel between Historic 25th Street, The Junction, Nine Rails Creative District and Washington Boulevard. Each of Downtown Ogden’s districts offer unique pieces of history, most notably in architecture, as well as shopping, dining, galleries and more.
As the Ogden Downtown Alliance, we strive to connect the community to locally owned and independent businesses. We aim to increase economic vitality and community vibrancy in the downtown through arts, events, placemaking and destination development. To learn more about how you can best experience Downtown Ogden, explore our site, follow us on social media, or come see for yourself! Visit any of Ogden’s award-winning restaurants, boutiques and galleries to see what makes this town one-of-a-kind.
More About Ogden
Ogden’s independent spirit began more than 150 years ago when the town was first settled. With the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad, Downtown Ogden was changed forever. From the 1870s to World War II, Ogden was a major railroad town with nine rail system terminals. The business exchange and commerce from the railroad propelled Ogden to become the largest development north of Salt Lake City. The connection of the Union Pacific and Central Pacific rail lines rightfully earned Ogden the nickname, “Junction City.” Visitors from all over the world began to travel west. As traffic through Ogden increased, the town began to grow, enticing a diverse group of shop owners and developers. Much of that early architecture remains today, most notably, Historic 25th Street, which is nestled between Ogden’s Union Station and the breathtaking Wasatch Mountains.

With Halloween coming up next week we’ve had a little bit of a sugar tooth so we’ve asked @plant_kandy to do a takeover with us this week! 🍭🍫🍬 Keep an eye on the stories to see what tricks and treats they’re up to 🎃
Artist call! If you want to be a lasting part of Ogden’s art scene this is the opportunity for you to do so 🎨
Ogden City is seeking qualifications from artists/designers and artists/design teams for the creation of 2-Dimensional artwork to be installed on the glass windscreens at the new Ogden Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Stations. This project will create a vibrant experience at each BRT Station stretching from Downtown Ogden to Weber State University and McKay Dee Hospital.
Through this process, the selection committee is seeking artwork that tells the story of our city and connects people through creativity. It is the desire that this creative engagement project will enhance, inspire, and interact with the community, the BRT riders, the local neighborhoods, and Ogden’s visitors. Competitive artists/designers/teams will have a demonstrated ability to create work that is site-specific and/or inspired by community engagement.
