Name: Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge.
Address: 705 Riverfront Dr, Omaha, NE 68102, USA

This stunning, 3,000-foot long walkway stretches across the Missouri River, giving pedestrians a spectacular view of Omaha’s skyline and an almost airborne experience. Stand in two states at once over the Mighty Missouri River. We call it "Bobbing." On the Nebraska side, enjoy a 3-acre plaza with an interactive water jet fountain and access to the National Park Service Visitors Center. The bridge is connected to more than 150 miles of nature trails – visitors love to bike and walk on Bob. Pets are welcome!

Let Visit Omaha help plan your next sporting event.

Home to the NCAA Men’s College World Series since 1950, Omaha is a bucket-list destination for college baseball fans. Omaha’s resume is filled with impressive sporting events, including the U.S. Senior Open; NCAA Basketball, Volleyball and Wrestling Championships; U.S. Speed Skating; FIVB and NORCECA Women’s International Volleyball; the National Veterans Wheelchair games; and the U.S. Olympic Swim Trials (4X). Olympic coaches and swimmers praise Omaha, saying the “convenience factor is unparalleled” and that the city makes athletes and fans “feel welcome and important.” 

There’s a reason Omaha is a player. The city is centrally located, making traveling here easy. Omaha has a strong volunteer base, and sporting events enjoy tremendous support from the local community. Omaha provides a unified team approach to events, making it easier for event planners to do their jobs.  

Yep, we swing for the fences, and that’s why Omaha has a proven track record of hitting it out of the park. Browse below to learn more about Omaha’s sports chops.
