Now that the Eaux Claires Music and Arts Festival is officially taking a year off, questions are being raised about how it will impact local tourism. Event organizers say the festival brings in about seven-million-dollars every year and welcomes people from across the globe, but they’re promising a bigger and better festival once it returns in 2020.
The director of Visit Eau Claire says the 2020 festival will be moved downtown which will have an even bigger impact on tourism than before.
