About KSFY:

Sioux Falls and the surrounding area remain one of the fastest growing regions in the Upper Midwest and is home to 300,000 people, constituting more than 30% of the state's population. Healthcare and finance make up much of a diverse and broad workforce. The business climate in South Dakota continues to be one of the top in the nation, fueled by no state income tax and a diverse workforce.

There is never a shortage of activities or events, with summers packed with outdoor festivals and concerts, including free concerts at the Levitt at the Falls outdoor music venue.

Still, many also enjoy the city’s nearly 30 miles of bike trails and parks, including the namesake of the city, the beautiful waterfalls of the Big Sioux River! Yes, winters can be challenging, but it does not mean people hibernate. Colder temperatures provide plenty of outdoor and indoor activities all winter long. From parades like the annual Parade of Lights down Phillips Avenue to outdoor ice skating parks, life does not slow down in the winter in Sioux Falls.

The city is home to a 12,000-seat arena that is continually hosting major events and entertainment acts, ranging from the Professional Bull Riders, college and semi-professional hockey, indoor football, to concerts with names like Paul McCartney, Garth Brooks, and Elton John.

The city is also home to a new indoor aquatic center, an indoor ice-skating facility, a basketball arena, and an indoor tennis complex. Multiple award-winning golf courses, both public and private, surround the city, offering a relaxing and challenging day on the links

Culinary appetites never need to look far from being satiated, as there is no shortage of places to eat. Not only is Sioux Falls home to many familiar restaurant chains, but it’s also known for many great locally owned, nationally recognized restaurants and restaurateurs. For those looking for a quick weekend getaway, nothing to fear. You can drive to Omaha in three hours, Minneapolis in four, and the Black Hills in five.

Since Sioux Falls is centrally located in the Midwest, direct and connecting flights to almost anywhere in the United States are often less than a few hours in length.
