Sandhills Global Event Center

About Sandhills Global Event Center

Sandhills Global Event Center is a year-round event complex and fairgrounds in Lincoln, with indoor and outdoor event space across a 160-acre site. Its materials specifically identify Ag Society Hall as suitable for weddings and list wedding receptions among the events hosted. The facility describes an overall event range of 8 to more than 20,000 people; individual room figures vary by room and seating configuration and are not wedding-specific. Indoor options include banquet and meeting rooms, halls, and large pavilions, while the outdoor options include a grandstand arena. On-site services include catering, bar and café service, along with event support such as AV, staging and lighting. The grounds offer free parking, accessible facilities, Wi-Fi, and an RV campground. Event-space inquiries use an application process; the public calendar is not an availability calendar.
