Held the last full week of July, CFD is a huge, 10-day western celebration.
The event has been held every July since 1897, except for 2020, so that Cheyenne can celebrate its Old West roots. Frontier Days carried on through both World Wars and the Great Depression, when tough finances prompted it to become a mostly volunteer-run festival of rodeo, music concerts, parades and other events.
In addition to the world-class Frontier Nights entertainment acts, the event offers the world's largest outdoor rodeo – which draws the top pros who compete for more than $1 million in prize money. A Frontier Days belt buckle is among the most coveted prizes in rodeo.
A complete CFD schedule and event tickets can be found at CFDRodeo.com.
The 2023 Wings Over Warren airshow during CFD has been canceled after the loss of its headline act. The airshow had been scheduled for Wed., July 26.
The Thunderbirds have been a staple of CFD since their first demonstration in 1953. The team did not fly in 2020 due to cases of COVID-19 in the flight team.
The 90th Missile Wing announced this summer's airshow will not take place after the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds demonstration team canceled its appearance.
The Thunderbirds determined that performing in Cheyenne "carries too much risk with lack of an approved emergency landing airfield nearby," F.E. Warren Air Force Base announced.
