Cheyenne Depot Tree Lighting & Santa's Grand Departure
Saturday, November 21, 2026 | 5:30 p.m.
Cheyenne Depot Plaza | Free Admission
There's something special about Christmas in downtown Cheyenne, where a sense of mystery and wonder fills the air with anticipation for the holiday journey yet to come.
Take a stroll along 17th Street and explore Downtown First's first-ever Holiday Night Market. Don’t miss Visit Cheyenne’s wreath laying procession, Lighting the Legacy, down Capitol Avenue led by the Cheyenne Frontier Days Mounted Marshals. Check out their social media page for more information!
Join us as we gather at the historic Cheyenne Depot to illuminate the heart of downtown and welcome another extraordinary holiday season. Together, we'll celebrate the traditions, memories, and moments that make Christmas in Cheyenne so special.
Before the evening is through, there's one very special guest you won't want to miss.
Santa is preparing for his grand departure north, but not before sharing a little Christmas magic with the families of Cheyenne. Stop by to say hello, share a smile, and capture a special memory with Santa. His elves will be ready to take photos using your own phone before he bids farewell and sets off on his journey.
Bundle up and bring the whole family for a majestic celebration to the beginning of the Christmas season.
The magic is about to begin.

Beware of Ticket Scalpers
Do you really have a ticket? Not if you bought it from a 3rd party. A ticket scalper is a 3rd party who buys tickets to a performance from us and sells them to you for more money but you don’t actually have a seat. That’s right friends, you just paid more than the face value for a ticket or 10 and probably don’t even get to see the show. -
