National Travel & Tourism Week
2021 highlights

National Travel and Tourism Week (NTTW) 2021 celebrated the "Power of Travel." The Department of Tourism extends a special thanks to all of our great friends across the state for showing their support and lighting their respective attractions in red (the official color of NTTW) to put a spotlight on the week and the importance of tourism to South Dakota.

Below are some fun NTTW highlights, including Governor Noem's NTTW 2021 video, a sampling of the tremendous media coverage, photos of locations across South Dakota all lit in celebratory red, and a few photos of the 2021 Spring Hospitality Training sessions.

Here's to the "Power of Travel" and having a great 2021 season!
