Saddle Up for Cheyenne Day!
The Wednesday of Frontier Days is dubbed "Cheyenne Day" and is no ordinary day. With CFD in full swing and many residents getting the day off from work to celebrate, it's a day to let down and show out! Events happen all over town with most found downtown or at Frontier Park.

We've combined a list of things to do and places to be to take in the full Western experience that is Cheyenne Day.
First Things First
Parking options during Frontier Days are plentiful. The neighborhood south of Frontier Park quickly fills with vehicles so you may want to consider your other options. The Park and Ride costs $20 and includes entry to the midway. It's found at exit 10D of I-25. The Downtown Express Shuttle runs daily, July 21-30, between Frontier Park and downtown. The free shuttle sponsored by the DDA departs the Depot at 121 W. 15th Street beginning at 10:00 am, and at the top of every hour until 6:00 pm. It departs from CFD, west of the main entrance at tour bus parking, at the bottom of the hour until 5:30 pm. The buses are handicapped accessible. There is also plenty of room in the parking garage downtown, available for $4/day. Parking is also available first come/first served along city streets, but watch the time as there is a 2 hour limit, and we'd rather you take a cooler souvenir home than a parking ticket.
