Rapid City’s Summer Nights concert series is moving. City Council voted unanimously to relocate the popular event to a new downtown location—one that won’t shut down Main Street or St. Joseph Street.
The decision comes after weeks of debate. Supporters say Summer Nights boosts tourism and community spirit, while others argue traffic disruptions hurt downtown businesses.
The new location hasn’t been decided yet, but city leaders say the goal is to keep the event alive while reducing its impact on traffic.
