Welcome Back

Not sure when Holiday Pops is? Looking for Santa? Wondering where to grab a bite to eat?

Local experts are eager to help – the Fountain Square Visitor Center Cincinnati has re-opened!

Staffed by volunteers who have completed the Certified Tourism Ambassador training, the Visitor Center had been shuttered at the beginning of the pandemic when travel saw sharp declines. 

“Leisure travel to the Cincy region has made a strong recovery, and weekend hotel business is strong,” said Julie Calvert, president and CEO of the Cincinnati USA Convention & Visitors Bureau. “Reopening our Visitor Center on Fountain Square now to support the winter and holiday events gives our guests more ideas on ways to enjoy the region.”

Located in the north area of Fountain Square, near Chipotle and behind Via Vite, The Visitor Center will be open Fridays through Sundays, and the schedule will continue into the new year. 

“The Holidays are such a special time to visit Cincinnati, so it makes sense to re-open while people are returning to so many cherished experiences,“ Calvert added. “We encourage locals to reconnect with the region as well, and bring your out-of-town guests to these events and the Visitor Center.”
