Headed to or near Laramie, Wyoming, this summer? Here are the events to add to your itinerary.

 

Laramie PrideFest

Taking place through June 15, Laramie PrideFest has been running since 2017 and includes a variety of activities over about a week’s time, including art events, drag shows, a pride march, pub crawls, speakers, vigils and more.

 

Freedom Has a Birthday

This is Laramie’s annual July 4 bash, and it’s a family-friendly, alcohol-free occasion that regularly attracts more than 10,000 attendees. Expect multiple entertainment stages, kid-centric activities, vendors and a food court, with a fireworks display beginning at 10 p.m. The entire event is free.

 

Laramie Jubilee Days

Extend your stay past the July 4 holiday with Laramie Jubilee Days, July 5–13. The event technically celebrates the anniversary of Wyoming becoming a state, but there’s so much more than history to be had during this lively event. Expect rodeo events, a parade, a carnival, an arts fest, concerts and more.

 

Laramie Brewfest

Coinciding with the last day of Laramie Jubilee Days, Laramie Brewfest takes over downtown with thousands of attendees coming out to sample the local brews, shop from local vendors and listen to live music.

You Can Sleep in Ireland’s Oldest University … But Only for a Limited Time

Each summer, for a short window, you can actually sleep in Ireland’s oldest university, Trinity College Dublin. Best known for its grand library and Book of Kells, the university opens its doors to those wishing to stay on site.

Best of Both Worlds

Enjoy the best of both worlds when you fly with TAP Air Portugal thanks to the Portugal Stopover program. With the program, TAP passengers, whether traveling for business, leisure or both, can stop in Portugal for up to 10 days at no additional airfare on the way to their final destination. What does this mean for travelers wishing to explore by both land and sea? It means after flying to Portugal with TAP and experiencing the country in an entirely new way, travelers can then embark on scenic river and ocean cruises from  Portugal’s port cities, or fly with TAP to another European destination.

Luxury Nighttime Rituals Await at This New Orleans Hotel

We all know a trip to New Orleans can get a little wild, from spending days exploring sites before hitting the town and wandering Bourbon Street at night. Sometimes it may feel like the city is non-stop, and you find yourself needing a vacation after the vacation. What many travelers often overlook is the option of adding an extra day or two to the trip to fully unwind and relax in the destination before finally heading home.
