Entertainment is back in Sioux Falls.

The Denny Sanford Premier Center last year broke attendance and financial records set prior to COVID-19 responses that shuttered entertainment venues across the globe in 2020.

According to ASM Global, the third-party management company that operates the city-owned Premier Center, the entire complex saw nearly 630,000 patrons and guests come through its doors through November of last year. And the 12,000-seat facility generated around $16 million in total revenue in 2022, beating its previous record of $14.3 million set back in 2019.
