One year has passed since the pandemic shut down most travel, and cities have hurt from losing millions of tourism-related dollars over that year. In an attempt to boost tourism, Springfield, MO recently launched their “One Night On Us” initiative, a promotion that rewards people for visiting the city.

The city will pick up the bill for one of your nights in a hotel if you complete the following:

1. Book two nights in participating Springfield hotel.
2. Make a purchase at three participating Springfield attractions.
3. Make a purchase at three participating Springfield food & drink locations.

The pandemic devastated local hotels, attractions and restaurants as they rely on people traveling and gathering, both which were shut down most of last year. The Convention and Visitors Bureau in Springfield hopes that this promotion will revive those industries that were completely devastated by the pandemic.
