Old Town Peoria is the city’s historic heart, where the past and present blend seamlessly. Anchored by the Peoria Center for the Performing Arts and a growing roster of independent coffee shops, family-run eateries, and artisan boutiques, Old Town has become a hotbed for creative energy. Local events like the Second Saturdays festival and the revitalization projects highlighted in Phoenix New Times have brought new life to classic brick storefronts, making it a favorite for those who appreciate walkable streets, live theater, and genuine community spirit.
