This year's theme, Cool Cities: Old Buildings, New Attitudes, focuses on what successful strategies communities are using to bring new vitality and diverse mix of people and uses to their traditional commercial districts. With nearly 1500 participants each year, the conference provides over 80 educational sessions, workshops, and field sessions that focus on successful strategies for revitalizing downtowns and commercial districts.

Many of the sessions and tours at the National Main Streets Conference qualify for continuing education credits for both the American Institute of Architects Continuing Education System and the American Institute of Certified Planners Continuing Professional Development program.

This conference attracts a diverse audience including directors of revitalization organizations, planners, architects, historic preservationists, business development specialists, economic development professionals, city management staff, CDC staff and more.
