2025
Greetings Friends of Wyoming Hospitality and Tourism!
The 2025 Wyoming Governor’s Hospitality and Tourism Convention is rapidly approaching, and we cannot wait to see you in Cheyenne on January 26-28, 2025 at Little America Hotel and Resort in Cheyenne! We heard your feedback loud and clear and are returning to two full days of content this year, with the highly anticipated BIG WYO Award being announced on Tuesday night, January 28 during the Salute the Industry Gala. This year’s convention is going to be amazing, and we hope you will plan to join us!
Below, please find sponsorship opportunities for this year’s event. As always, our main objective is to connect you with hospitality and tourism professionals from all corners of Wyoming. Our team focuses on building upon the previous year’s success, and we think you will find this year’s event the best one yet.
We have a limited number of booths available so please don’t wait! Secure your spot today!
We sincerely appreciate your investment in the Wyoming Hospitality and Travel Coalition. To put it plainly, we could not protect our industry without it. We are a membership-driven organization that exists solely to “Enhance the business climate, profit, and economic impact of Wyoming’s hospitality, travel, and tourism industries”
Thank you so very much for your continued support. If you have any questions or need anything, please reach out to me directly at any time.
Warmest Regards,
Chris Brown Executive Director
