Expansive trail system and reenergized downtown define Tigard
Tigard, a city southwest of Portland, is home to an expansive parks and trails system, a popular hot air balloon festival and about 55,000 people, some of whom are leading the charge to revitalize the city’s downtown. “We are trying to make the downtown area more vibrant with food, drinks and specialty retail, as well as with the addition of Universal Plaza, which just opened up,” says Kyle Knepper, the executive director of the Tigard Downtown Alliance—a nonprofit focused on increasing foot traffic and business in the area—who has lived in the city for almost two decades and grew up nearby. “Right now, it’s a little more transactional. Many people are going down there to get a car wash, to go to the dry cleaners or just to get one meal. The idea is that community members can come and spend a full day downtown by shopping, eating, accessing the Fanno Creek Trail, looking at public art, going to the park and all that stuff.”

Vintage store and local bars on Main Street
Main Street is the heart of Downtown Tigard, anchored by veteran business Curiosities Vintage & Oddities—opened in 2013—and buzzy hangout spots like Cooper Mountain Ale Works and Tigard Taphouse. Though local businesses drive traffic, city officials and nonprofits, like the Tigard Downtown Alliance, are working to make downtown more of a regional destination. “The way we do that is we put on a handful of the city’s larger events, which happen to be downtown,” Knepper says. “A lot of times, people don’t realize that there is a turnover of businesses. Even though they might not go and shop or eat [at a new place they discover] during the event, hopefully, they come back the next weekend to check it out.”

Forty years of the Tigard Festival of Balloons
The events the Tigard Downtown Alliance organizes include a wine walk, an autumn street fair, Trick or Treat Main Street, which draws a crowd of over 3,000, according to Knepper, and a holiday tree lighting. The city’s most prominent event is the Tigard Festival of Balloons. For over 40 years, nearly two dozen hot air balloons have graced the skies during sunrise and sunset, while tethered rides are available after the early morning launch.
One of downtown's revitalization efforts centers around artwork—vibrant murals, outdoor installations and playful glass baskets that hang on light poles add character to downtown Tigard. The city is also rich in performance art, with the only professional musical theater company in the region. The Broadway Rose Theatre Company was founded in 1984, attracting an audience of over 40,000 per year and employing over 250 artists, technicians, educators and other staff members.

Downtown's new green space: Urban Plaza
Universal Plaza, the newest addition to Tigard’s 550 acres of parks and open spaces, opened in April 2023, southeast of Main Street. The gathering space is the new home of the Tigard Farmers Market, food carts, a fountain and a splash pad. It also connects to the paved Fanno Creek Trail, which runs through several Tigard parks on its way from Tualatin to Beaverton. The largest green space in the city is Cook Park 's namesake green space, which rests on the northern edge of the Tualatin River. The park allows for fishing and has access to a boat ramp for the Tualatin River, a butterfly garden and a new, accessible playground designed to accommodate children with wheelchairs, cochlear implants and autism.
The climate in Tigard is moderate, though November through January can be rainy. Temperatures stay above freezing during the coldest months and in the low 80s during the summer.
