Appleton is getting an exhibition center.

The Fox Cities Exhibition Center has been approved by all ten of the Fox Cities communities that are involved with the project.

The exhibition center will be built behind the Radisson Paper Valley Hotel and will be paid for through a room tax rate increase that is charged to people staying at hotels in the Fox Cities. The owners of the Paper Valley Hotel will operate the exhibition center.

Leaders say the exhibition center is expected to generate around $6.5 million in new visitor spending to the Fox Cities each year.
