Nebraska Tourism is excited to announce the stops included in the 2024 Nebraska Passport program. The Passport inspires Nebraskans and tourists to travel throughout the state collecting stamps to earn prizes while also supporting Nebraska’s tourism destinations and local businesses.
The Nebraska Passport program is entering its 15th year.
“Reaching 15 years of helping travelers discover some of Nebraska’s most charming attractions is worth celebrating,” said John Ricks, Nebraska Tourism executive director. “Visitors and communities alike benefit from Passport season, and we are once again excited to kick off another round of adventures across the state in 2024.”
The 2024 Passport will once again feature 70 attractions and 10 themed categories. Travelers will have from May 1 through September 30 to visit the attractions and collect their stamps.
In honor of the 15th year of the program, this year’s Passport will include 15 bonus stops from across the state, which will be in addition to the 70 traditional stops.
“We wanted to do something special for the 15th year of the program,” said Madison Johnson, Passport program coordinator. “Often we hear our long-time Passport Champions say they want even more of a challenge and even more adventures. Our 15 bonus stops are made up of fan favorites, voted on by them. It’s the perfect way to bring the two together.”
Visitors will receive a unique collectible sticker from each of the bonus stops. The bonus stops will have a separate prize entry sheet from the original 70 stops, and stamps from the original stops combined with stamps from the bonus stops cannot be combined for prize totals.
Passports will be available at participating stops starting May 1 or can be pre-ordered at NebraskaPassport.com. Participants are encouraged to download the Nebraska Passport App on their smartphone for the option of digital stamps, supplementing the physical Passport booklet for convenience. Please note, the Passport app will be updated with the 2024 information on May 1. Those who used the mobile app last year will need to update the app to see the new program information.
