G rand Island, a city of 53,000 in central Nebraska, is home to the Spring Migration of the Sandhill Cranes and the Nebraska State Fair. Deeply rooted in agriculture, our community annually hosts national livestock events and the Husker Harvest Days farm show — the largest fully-irrigated farm show in the world.
Weʼre proud of our 200-acre living history museum, Stuhr Museum, and Heartland Public Shooting Park, one of the finest facilities of its kind anywhere. Grand Island also offers unique shopping, dining, breweries, and the historic Railside district. VisitGrandIsland.com
