Things to do in Kearney

Kearney sits along Interstate 80 and the Platte River in the middle of Nebraska, a regional center for healthcare, retail, manufacturing and agriculture. The University of Nebraska at Kearney brings students and faculty, and the city’s position halfway across the state makes it a natural meeting point for businesses that work across the plains. Kearney’s history runs through the Platte River valley, the path of the Oregon, California and Mormon trails, the Pony Express and later the transcontinental railroad.
