Kansas Tourism’s Sunflower Summer program once again brought thousands of visitors to Abilene in 2025, creating unforgettable memories for families and showcasing why Abilene is celebrated as one of the best small towns in America.

This season, 7,583 tickets were claimed at Abilene’s attractions, resulting in $94,559 in reimbursements for local museums, historic sites, theatres, and experiences.

Kansas Tourism extends its heartfelt thanks to the community for making this year’s program a resounding success.

“Sunflower Summer is one of the best programs our state has ever done,” said one participant through the mobile app. “It encouraged our family to explore new communities and try new things we wouldn’t have otherwise.”
