One of the largest outdoor rodeos and western celebrations in the world, Cheyenne Frontier Days truly demonstrates why Cheyenne earned the nickname Frontier City. Join in this popular 10-day long attraction, which draws in hundreds of thousands of visitors to this otherwise low-key city. This enormous fair features popular music performances, a midway, carnival rides, an Indian village, wild west shows and “The Daddy of ‘em All” rodeo.
Connecting the city together is the amazing Greater Cheyenne Greenway. More than just a 32-mile-long sidewalk, this 10-foot-wide reinforced concrete path is a monumental achievement and a key component in Cheyenne’s non-motorized transportation system. Walk, run, jog, bike or even skate through neighborhoods, parks and urban centers on this highly accessible outdoor path system.
Get a taste of the Frontier Days Festival’s cultural immersion at the Cheyenne Frontier Days Old West Museum all year long. Packed with exhibits and activities celebrating the heritage and pioneer spirit of the American West, this museum captures the minds and imaginations of its visitors. View wagons from the frontier days, learn about the rodeo, see the best western art and much more!
