Game Changer: The Power of Sports Tourism in Rhode Island
Sports tourism is big business in Rhode Island! From NCAA basketball to Rubik’s Cube competitions (yes, really!), Jonathan Walker, Senior Director of Sports Sales at the Rhode Island Sports Commission, takes us behind the scenes of how these events come to town.
We’re talking economic impact, community involvement, and the surprising sports that bring thousands of visitors (and their wallets) to the Ocean State. Plus, a sneak peek at what’s coming to Providence, including the 2025 NCAA Men’s Division I Basketball Tournament!
