The Gulfport Merchants Chamber of Commerce is thrilled to announce that it will be taking over the monthly “Gulfport Boulevard Block Party” as part of its ongoing efforts to promote local businesses and revitalize different areas of the city. This popular community event focuses on showcasing the diverse offerings of this vibrant city.
The Gulfport Boulevard Block Party began in November of 2021, being organized by independant business owners along Gulfport Blvd., drawing crowds of residents and visitors alike with its unique blend of live music, food vendors, and local merchants. The Chamber of Commerce is excited to take the reins of this beloved event and build upon its success by adding new elements and promoting it as a must-attend monthly gathering.
“We are thrilled to be managing and promoting the Gulfport Boulevard Block Party, which is the first monthly event we are taking on outside of Beach Boulevard,” said Melissa Helmbold, President of the Gulfport Merchants Chamber of Commerce. “Our aim is to highlight other areas of Gulfport and create more opportunities for local businesses to thrive. This event is an excellent platform to showcase the diverse offerings of our city and bring the community together.”
The Gulfport Boulevard Block Party will provide an opportunity for local businesses in those areas to gain exposure and generate increased foot traffic. The Chamber of Commerce is committed to promoting economic growth and supporting local merchants, and the expansion of the event aligns with this mission.
The Gulfport Merchants Chamber of Commerce plans to enhance the Gulfport Boulevard Block Party by incorporating additional activities, entertainment, and promotions to make it an even more exciting and engaging experience for attendees. The Chamber will also work closely with local businesses, community partners, and city officials to ensure the event’s success and positive impact on the city.
