Fargo Chooses Convention Center Site

Fargo’s City Commission faces a pivotal decision next Monday as they choose between two sites for the new convention center — Brewhalla or the aging Civic Center — after a year-long process fueled by a voter-approved 3% lodging tax set to generate $75 million. Construction costs range from $37–$41 million, with ongoing operational losses expected early on, though Brewhalla’s developers offer to cover deficits and share profits. The Civic Center option involves renovating a 60-year-old building. Originally slated for May 26, the vote was delayed to better assess financial risks — and now, with no clear favorite, the commissioners must decide, with construction targeted for spring 2027.
