Downtown Boulder Ambassador Program

Downtown Boulder Ambassadors can be easily identified by a bright blue shirt with a green Downtown Boulder Ambassador logo and are trained to provide information to residents and visitors, give directions/recommendations, escort visitors and employees safely to and from vehicles and businesses upon request, help visitors find parked vehicles; work with Boulder Police Department to locate lost items, patrol the district and address unfavorable activities/ordinance violations (e.g. smoking in public spaces, dogs on the Mall, etc.) , Identify and offer assistance to individuals in need of social services.

Downtown Boulder Partnership (DBP), in partnership with the City of Boulder, implemented a more robust version of our Clean and Safe Ambassador Program in downtown that launched on July 1, 2021. Overall, the program provides cleaning, safety and hospitality services within the 49-block Business Improvement District (BID) along with the city’s Civic Area and, in partnership with the University of Colorado, the University Hill business district.

Downtown Ambassadors support City of Boulder staff efforts to keep the streets clean by removing trash and debris, pulling weeds, cleaning graffiti and supporting other programs of the Downtown Boulder Business Improvement District to beautify downtown and keep it clean, safe and welcoming.

Downtown Boulder Ambassadors patrol over 49 blocks serving as the concierges of downtown. Ambassadors provide pedestrian assistance, directions, transit information, activity recommendations and more, while walking the district as well as at the Visitor Information Center.

DBP ambassadors will help to continue to foster a downtown environment that is clean, safe, and welcoming every day of the year.  If you are people-orientated, outgoing and community focused, become a Downtown Boulder ambassador and work with a fun and passionate team of individuals through our partners at Block By Block. View available positions.
