The Peoria Riverfront came to life as we celebrated our community, talent and shared passion for growth at Choose Greater Peoria’s GO DAY 2024. The event was a huge success, bringing together residents from across the region to celebrate all that makes Greater Peoria special. We want to say a big thank you to our partner organizations that help made this event what it was, and we can’t wait to see what GO DAY 2025 brings!
GO DAY couldn’t be what it is without the amazing organizations who work hard to serve our community. Read about the five organizations that were recognized at GO DAY 2024 for their contributions to Greater Peoria.
We’re glad you asked! If you’ve heard about Choose Greater Peoria, you’ve
probably heard us say, “There’s more* here!” (you may have even seen
more* messaging around town!). We’re passionate about sharing how much
more time, space and opportunity exists in our region. It really is
a whole lot more than people think.
That’s why we want everyone to have the opportunity to explore, discover
and uncover the richness of Greater Peoria through events and unique
experiences no other region can claim as their own!
… Enter GO DAY!
Through a fun-filled day for families and friends, GO DAY is an opportunity
to participate in sports, activities, arts and games and leave feeling
inspired to “GO” share the positive stories about Greater Peoria.
