On September 5 Wichita Falls was awarded three future conventions. They include the North Texas Nonprofit and Business Summit, the U.S. Quidditch Southwest Regional Championships, and the Ink Masters Tattoo Expo.
Those events increase the number to five since June, after the city landed the National Horseshoe Competition, and the Texas Six Man Football Association announced they would continue their expo in Wichita Falls for the next five years.
There are many different reasons for the spike, but the biggest might be the possibility of a new full-service hotel and conference center next to the MPEC.
More information about the new hotel and upcoming conventions can be found here.
