Cheyenne Tourism Master Plan Cover

Why tourism? 

  • In 2025, Cheyenne and Laramie County welcome an estimated 2.77 million overnight visitors.
  • Visitors spent $485.1 million in the Cheyenne area (Laramie County) in 2025, providing 3,720 local jobs which paid $118.2 million in wages.
  • Visitors paid $29 million in state and local taxes in 2025.
  • Laramie County has the 3rd highest level of traveler spending among Wyoming counties, behind only Teton & Park Counties.
  • If the travel industry were a single business, it would rank as the county's third largest employer behind F.E. Warren Air Force Base and the State of Wyoming.
  • Without the tax contribution of tourists, each Laramie County household would pay an additional $878 in taxes to maintain existing government services.
