Downtown Rock Island

Welcome to Rock Island, Illinois located in the Southwest corner of the Quad Cities with easy access to the Rock River and the Mississippi River known for exciting activities and scenic views. The legacy of the earliest settlers in the mid 1800s remains today, evident in the city's still exciting attractions and leisure activities, renovated elegant homes and storefronts.
Today, the city houses around 40,000 people and is still surrounded by hard working, adventurous people. “The District” is a major part of Rock Island’s night life, attracting visitors for events such as The Quad Cities Criterium, the Gallery Hop, and the Rock Island Grand Prix.
Anyone and everyone can enjoy a weekend in the District of Rock Island, the place for unique food and live entertainment. Throughout the summer various events and concerts crowd the streets between 1st and 4th Avenue. The District has over 16 bars and night clubs in a 4 block area. Enjoy original brewed beer from the Blue Cat Brew Pub, or an Old Rock Island style Deep Dish Pizza from Huckleberry’s Great Pizza & Calzones. At night, hop from bar to bar and dance to some great music at the Rock Island Brewing Company or sip on some fine wine at Copia.
The District of Rock Island also has art stores, plant and flower gardens, and many clothing shops. The public can spend the day, night or whole weekend in the District and have a great time. Enjoy ‘Rock Solid’ Rock Island.
