Repeats Weekly on Friday, starting from May 29, 2026, until Aug 28, 2026
Dakota News Now is bringing back its summer series of live music and food trucks with Fridays on the Plaza.
Each Friday throughout the summer, Dakota News Now will host musicians from across the region from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm. They’ll perform on the 12th Street Plaza outside our studio in downtown Sioux Falls.
Some of Sioux Falls’ best food trucks will also be on hand to serve up lunch, and sweet treats will be available almost every week!
The 2026 Fridays on the Plaza series is sponsored by CCL Label Food and Beverage.
