Events
The Annapolis Business Association puts on a series of events throughout the year to benefit our members. These include seminars as well as events to draw and keep business in Annapolis. These events include:
Restaurant Week
*visit this event page*
This annual event allows restaurants to collectively market their businesses by having fixed price menus that can feature their fare. Each restaurant chooses which meals to participate in (breakfast was added in 2012) and submits their menu to the chairperson for marketing purposes. If the restaurant has an online reservation system, a link is placed online for that as well.
March Madness

This annual Spring event encourages residents and visitors to enjoy downtown as Spring is coming into swing. Visit the event page for more information!
Light Up Annapolis
Through many names, including Tastebuds and the Holiday Homecoming Ball, we have enjoyed a sampling from local restaurants to raise funds for the holiday decorations in town. Stay tuned for another exciting event coming soon!
Midnight Madness
An annual event hosted by the ABA to encourage residents and visitors to enjoy the splendor of an evening in downtown Annapolis. The two Thursdays are selected in advance to encourage stores to stay open later to participate - we encourage participants to serve a tasty beverage or snack to warm up their patrons. Visitors especially enjoy all of the decorations and the holiday lights twinkling in our Historic town! The 2012 dates are Thursdays, December 6 and 13, with an 11th hour shopping event scheduled for Thursday, December 20.
