Our Mission
The Aberdeen BID II Board exists to increase the economic and cultural growth benefiting the Aberdeen area and its hotels by the enhancement, expansion, marketing and promotion of visitor events, attractions and activities with an emphasis on the overnight guest. Aberdeen Hotel Alliance funding is available for sporting events, special events, and conventions that support our mission.
Only events that meet the Criteria, Requirements, and Restrictions set forth by the Aberdeen Hotel Alliance will be considered. Follow the link if you would like to learn more about Aberdeen Hotel Alliance Sponsorship Grant Funding.
The Aberdeen Business Improvement District 2 for tourism enhancement (BIDII) was established on May 1, 2008, by City Ordinance 08-03-03.
