## Resource

The Heartland Events Center is officially rebranded as the BigIron Events Center after a swift city council approval of a naming rights deal with BigIron Auctions and Realty. This partnership injects $140,000 annually into the venue’s budget, eliminating the need for taxpayer-funded subsidies and boosting regional visibility. The executive director calls it a win-win: it aligns with Grand Island’s values, strengthens the venue’s sustainability, and gives BigIron major exposure—all while ensuring the facility thrives for years to come.
