About The Holiday Pop-Up Program
Launched in 2014, the Holiday Pop-Up Shop program initially was conceived as a creative strategy for attracting new retail concepts to Downtown while also filling vacant spaces during the holidays. Since the inception of the program, more than 50 unique retail brands and concepts have been featured in individual or cooperative retail spaces.
Additions to Downtown such as Eclectic Co. (214 1/2 N. Tejon), RM Soap Market (212 N. Tejon) and Story Coffee Co. (120 E. Bijou) got their start Downtown through the Holiday Pop-Up Shop program.
Pop-Up Shop Program Testimonial
The Downtown Development Authority (DDA) went above and beyond to find us a space in a very short amount of time. They used their network to help us find a retail location that wasn’t yet available to the public, and proceeded to help us
negotiate a reasonable rental rate, which they split with us during the holiday
months.
Through the Holiday Pop-Up Program, the Downtown Partnership connected us to multiple marketing opportunities, which was crucial for the time that we were in our space. After the two months were up, the Partnership helped us negotiate a longer lease as well as helped us navigate the coming months and continued supporting us.
Using their network, they helped us establish ourselves in the community and set us up to continue to thrive in Downtown Colorado Springs. We couldn’t be more grateful for this program!
