The Town of Leesburg strives to stay connected to our business community, and we’ve found one of the best ways to do that is through a variety of business events – celebratory, informative, problem-solving, or networking. Below you will find descriptions of these events and opportunities to register to participate or host events such as ribbon cuttings.

The annual 2025 Leesburg Business Awards will be held 6:00 – 8:30pm on Wednesday, May 7th at The Building People event space at 215 Depot Court.
