What are some highlights for travelers
heading to Sioux Falls?
Our namesake, the Falls of the Big Sioux
River, is in the heart of our city and
encompasses a 123-acre park featuring
Sioux Quartzite, a pink rock that is the
hardest rock, second only to the dia-
mond. It was used for many of the build-
ings in our historical downtown, which is
bustling with unique restaurants whose
chefs are committed to using locally
sourced ingredients. Also, the craft
brewery and winery scene has exploded,
making Sioux Falls a foodie mecca.
Can you talk about some of the travel
ideas provided by the Sioux Falls CVB?
The featured videos on our website
provide a lens for consumers to see
Sioux Falls through the eyes of an
urban explorer, a family, a foodie and
more. Plus, our CVB staff is dedicated
to the motorcoach industry by helping
group tour operators with customized
itineraries, hotel procurement, attraction
information and step-on guides.
What are some exciting attractions
and venues?
Sioux Falls is home to SculptureWalk,
the largest annual exhibit of public
sculptures in the world. The sculptures
are displayed all year throughout down-
town Sioux Falls. Since the sculptures
are owned by the artist and on loan
for one year, the sculptures change
annually, so the exhibit is always fresh
and exciting. We are also home to the
Washington Pavilion and the Denny
Sanford Premier Center, the largest
concert venue between Minneapolis and
Denver, so we really serve as the enter-
tainment capital of the region.
What do you like to do when you’re
not hard at work?
My heart is happiest when I am either
attending a theater production or gar-
dening. I love digging in the dirt; it con-
nects you with the earth.
