About

Built by neighbors, for neighbors.

Upper Arlington Today started with a simple frustration: there was no single place to find out what is actually happening in our own town. The events, the local shops, the news worth knowing were all scattered across group chats, flyers, and a dozen different sites. So we built one place to bring it together.

We are neighbors, and this is for neighbors. We pull together local events, highlight the businesses that make UA special, and keep it all current, free, and clutter-free. Whether you have been here for decades or you just unpacked the last box, our goal is the same: to help you feel like you are part of everything this community has to offer.

What you'll find here

The whole town, one tab.

From the parade route on the Fourth to a quiet Tuesday in February, we keep a running calendar of local events so you always know what is on. Our directory points you to the local businesses worth your time, whether you are hungry, need a plumber, or just want to support the shop down the street. We round up deals from those businesses, and we keep an eye on Golden Bears sports schedules too, because around here that counts as community news.

For business owners
