Tourism Takes Center Stage! Join Us for the Visit Mason City Annual Meeting
A Standing Ovation for the People, Partnerships & Places That Make Mason City Unheard Of!
The red carpet is rolling out, and YOU are invited! Join Visit Mason City for an evening of celebration, gratitude, and inspiration as Tourism Takes Center Stage at our 2026 Annual Meeting!
Tourism is a powerful economic driver for Mason City and North Iowa, generating $148.18 million in visitor spending in Cerro Gordo County in 2025 and supporting 1,463 local jobs. Behind these impressive numbers are the incredible people, partnerships, attractions, events, and experiences that make our community a destination worth discovering.
This special evening is our opportunity to shine the spotlight on YOU - the tourism partners, community champions, and hospitality professionals who make it all possible! We'll celebrate the accomplishments of the past year, recognize outstanding contributions to our tourism industry, and look ahead to exciting opportunities on the horizon.
And there's more! Guests will enjoy a special opportunity to explore the newly renovated Meredith Willson Museum at The Music Man Square, celebrating the legacy of one of Mason City's most treasured attractions.
