State of the City 2025

Moreno Valley is a city on the move, and we’re coming together to celebrate just how far we’ve come! On Thursday, August 21, we’re rolling out the welcome mat for one of Moreno Valley’s most anticipated annual events: our 2025 State of the City Address

 

This special gathering brings together residents, local businesses, regional leaders, and community partners to reflect on the year behind us, while looking ahead to the incredible future we’re building together. 

 

This year’s theme is “Community Built. Destiny Driven.” This is more than a slogan: It’s a reflection of who we are. Every success story in Moreno Valley starts with the people who live, work, and serve here. Our community is the foundation of our progress, and our shared vision is driving us forward with purpose. 

 

At the event, we will share highlights from the past year: our achievements, our growth, and the challenges we’ve overcome. But more importantly, we’ll be unveiling where we are headed next. 

 

From new projects and innovations to continued investments in public safety, infrastructure, and economic development, we're creating a future that’s as bold and dynamic as our community. 

 

Tickets for this year’s State of the City Address are sold out, but you can RSVP to join us for a free catered lunch where our event will be live-streamed. To learn more, visit mvsotc.com. Doors open at 11:00 a.m., and the event starts at 11:30 a.m. 

 

If you can’t join us in person, you can also stream the event at your home or office on our YouTube channelFacebook account, and MV3
