Discover Downstate Illinois

Discover Downstate Illinois is a Convention and Visitors Bureau that represents 21 counties stretching across southern Illinois. Downstate Illinois is full of exciting experiences for anyone and everyone; spend a day shopping in boutiques and dining at amazing restaurants, or get away from it all to experience several breathtaking nature trails and parks. Our goal is to highlight the hidden gems in southern Illinois, so that everyone can take a unique adventure they may have otherwise never heard of! We can assist our member communities in creating and producing advertising efforts such as social media, brochures, billboards, web and video content, and much more. We LOVE our neck of the woods, and hopefully after a visit, you will too!
