Despite bigger costs, bigger concerts and a pandemic, the Festival at Sandpoint continues to have a huge economic impact in the region.
A study, released by the Festival at Sandpoint this week, found the summer music series has a conservative direct economic impact of $3.8 million in the county. In addition, the study found the Festival generates over $233,000 in city, county, and state taxes and creates the equivalent of 37 full-time jobs throughout Sandpoint.
