Stay in the Loop: Visit Albany Launches New Text Club to Keep the Community Connected

In a continued effort to strengthen community engagement and ensure residents and visitors stay informed about local happenings, Visit Albany has launched an innovative new Text Club designed to deliver timely updates about events, activities, and special offers throughout the city. This initiative reflects Visit Albany’s commitment to keeping the community connected in a simple, direct, and convenient way.

As part of this new offering, individuals can sign up to receive weekly text messages highlighting “top weekly events around town,” important event updates, exclusive deals, and other opportunities to engage with Albany’s vibrant cultural and social calendar. Rather than relying solely on email or social media, the text club provides a modern communication channel that many residents and visitors already use daily.

Signing up for the Text Club is straightforward. Participants simply provide their phone number to begin receiving updates directly to their mobile devices, ensuring they never miss out on key events or community news. The convenience of weekly text alerts aims to enrich the experience of living in or visiting Albany by keeping everyone informed in real time.

This initiative complements Visit Albany’s broader mission to promote engagement with the city’s attractions and activities. In addition to the Text Club, Visit Albany maintains an event calendar of events and encourages local organizations and event hosts to share their listings so that all members of the community can benefit from expanded visibility and participation.

Through efforts like the Text Club, Visit Albany continues to support community connectivity, promote local happenings, and ensure that the city’s diverse offerings are easily accessible to all who live in or travel to Albany. Residents and visitors alike are encouraged to join the Text Club today and stay up to date with everything Albany has to offer!
