Flagstaff has a thriving tourism industry, and has since the early 1900s, primarily stemming from its proximity to the Grand Canyon National Park and other natural wonders, giving it the nickname 'City of Seven Wonders'. A lot of the local culture is also focused on Route 66, which originally ran between Chicago and Los Angeles, greatly increased the accessibility to the area, and enhanced the culture and tourism in Flagstaff.

The tradition originated in 1999, when Henry Taylor and Sam Green (owners of the hotel), decorated a garbage can with paint, lights, and pine cones, and dropped it from the roof of their building to mark the new millennium. The city also attracts folk and contemporary acoustic musicians, and offers several annual music festivals during the summer months, such as the Flagstaff Friends of Traditional Music Festival, the Flagstaff Music Festival, and Pickin' in the Pines, a three-day bluegrass and acoustic music festival held at the Pine Mountain Amphitheater at Fort Tuthill Fairgrounds. The city has several hotels and restaurants, including its historic hotels. The department has won awards, including multiple invitations to the Kennedy Center American College Theater Festival.

Camping in an area that is not an official campground but is still legal. We still remember it was only in 2014 that the Rohrabacher-Blumenauer Amendment prohibited the US Department of Justice to use federal funds for discouraging states from implementing medical marijuana laws on their own. Although it overturned the conviction, the Court decided that the law was not in violation of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution.
