The Corn Palace is located at 604 North Main Street in Mitchell, South Dakota.

So you want to visit the Corn Palace? We would be thrilled to have you! 

Come and experience it! Visiting is FREE!

The Corn Palace is open year-round and is free to visit. Our peak season is from Memorial Day through Labor Day. When you come during this time, you truly see the Corn Palace come to life as it is redecorated with new corn, grain and grass to showcase a new theme. However, the Corn Palace is never completely bare, so you will always see a building that is truly an American Icon!

During the summer months the Corn Palace offers free guided tours led by friendly guides full of "a-maize-ing" facts, like how many nails and staples are used in the decoration process. The tour also features an outstanding video explaining the Corn Palace Story. After the tour you can view displays about the Corn Palace, how the murals are created, souvenirs and entertainment from the past, and how the corn is grown.

Today, the Corn Palace is more than the home of the festival or a point of interest of tourists. It is a practical structure adaptable to many purposes. Included among its many uses are industrial exhibits, dances, stage shows, meetings, banquets, proms, graduations arena for Mitchell High School and Dakota Wesleyan University as well as district, regional and state basketball tournaments. 

USA Today named the Corn Palace one of the top 10 places in America for high school basketball.
