I went to the Demolition Derby event, and first, I have to mention that we bought parking tickets for $20, but no one ever asked for them. When we asked about it, they told us that parking is actually free. The paid parking we bought is just an extra area in case the main lot gets full, but honestly, the regular parking area is big enough, so there’s no problem finding a spot. I wouldn’t recommend buying the parking ticket.

As for the venue, I thought it was great—exactly what I expected. The seating areas were comfortable enough, and the event lasted around four hours. If yours lasts about the same, I suggest bringing something cushioned to sit on. The seats aren’t necessarily uncomfortable, but after a few hours, you’ll definitely start to feel it.

I definitely recommend going to the Demolition Derby—it’s an awesome event! However, if you have sensitive ears or don’t do well with loud noises, make sure to bring some earplugs.

A bit wierd to get into, if you don't park in the direct entrance.
I went for a few Rapid City Rush games, the crowd is a but on the quiet side, and the announcers are quite. Great concessions, and security.

This was our first time in the civic center for the Kountry Junkin’ vintage market and we had a great time. We found a lot of fun unique things, had some snacks (the walking taco is a must try!) and enjoyed talking to all the vendors.

This place was neat and clean with friendly people everywhere. We can’t wait to go to a concert next.
