Downtown BGKY is the heart of this city, a cultural destination as Corvette’s historic hometown, and the hub of Kentucky’s Cave Country. This thriving Downtown’s foundations are its vibrant food and drink scene, big small town charm, arts and entertainment community, growing residential opportunities, and international influence.
The City of Bowling Green established the Downtown Development Division in the Neighborhood & Community Services Department in December 2021. The Downtown BGKY brand and destination identity were launched in Spring 2022, capturing the charming mix of historic and modern that thrives here.
