Bryan has become a popular spot for sports tourism, and thanks to our state-of-the-art facilities, there’s no offseason.
Since its opening, Legends Event Center has attracted more than 36,000 tourism event attendees and generated more than $10.8 million in total economic impact for the local economy from tourism oriented events, with more than $7.2 million of that coming from brand new events to the community.
On April 11, Bryan City Council approved a $5.1 million construction contract for new outdoor amenities to Legends Event Center and Midtown Lake. The funds were already included in the overall budget for Travis Bryan Midtown Park.
