Dress For The Occasion
There is no better time than Cheyenne Frontier Days 2019 to whip out your cowboy hat, flannel shirt and favorite pair of boots. Any style of clothing is acceptable at the rodeo, but it’s fun to get in the spirit and show off your best Western look. The most important thing to remember is to dress comfortably and be prepared for warm temperatures.
Wear something breathable that will keep you cool. Also, be sensible about footwear. You’ll be walking throughout the grounds the entire day, so wear shoes you won’t regret later.
As wild as the West ever was, the Cheyenne Frontier Days offers plenty of a rodeo showmanship.
