From the reviews

This place was pretty cool for a free place to visit and a good leg stretch. My teenagers thought it was cool, definitely nothing exciting for littles. There was a great concession stand with amazing smelling popcorn. I also didn't realytjis place is an event venue, which I thought it was super cool.

This is actually a music venue or a place for sometimes they have shopping inside. It’s more like a convention center. It’s something to see it’s all made out of corn on the outside and a lot of famous people over the years have perform performed there.

Saw the signs on the highwaywhen traveling through and decided to make a quick detour. Such a cool place. Loved seeing all the previous designs and the history of the palace. Bonus free admission. Great place to stop and take a quick stroll if you're traveling through.

With almost every arena and stadium being homogenized look-alikes with different names and corporate sponsors every year or two, The Corn Palace is a breath of fresh air. It's so very unique and a tribute to the people who keep it going.
