To Do in the River District

Dear Danville businesses who love to appreciate their employees!

This is a great opportunity to purchase River District Dollars for employee appreciation this holiday season.

If you register as a "Patron" you can purchase gift cards without the e-delivery fee. This is great for employees AND for River District businesses! (RDA does not receive any fund from these sales, it's all for the businesses!)

Danville’s River District, nestled between the hills along the Dan River in South Central Virginia, has a rich history full of challenges and triumphs. It is open and welcoming, offering big city amenities with a small town feel. Whether you are looking for a romantic getaway, a fun family weekend, or a budget-friendly vacation, the River District has something for you! 

Check out this "Weekend in Danville Guide" for some ideas!
