The first economic impact study of the Dome in 18 years was released this week, and it shows the venue contributed an average of $63.6 million each year in the past decade to the local economy.
The independent study, which more closely examined the year of 2019, found that year beat the average with direct visitor spending and Fargodome operations measured at $42.4 million. Secondary benefits to city businesses raised the total to $69.7 million.

We’ve pruned together. We’ve planted together. We’ve even battled insects and disease together. This spring marks the eight-year anniversary of our gardening columns for The Forum, and that’s 800 articles between Growing Together and Fielding Questions.
Eight years isn’t a long time in the whole scheme of things, but we’ve been through a lot together, and I’ve appreciated our weekly opportunities to chat. I look forward to many more years together.
