Condé Nast calls Buffalo "a comeback kid with a revitalized waterfront and new cultural stalwarts"

Condé Nast named Buffalo one of the Best Places to Go in North America and the Caribbean in 2026

A prominent luxury and lifestyle magazine has recognized Buffalo as a top national tourism destination.

Condé Nast Global Traveler recently named Buffalo one of its Best Places to Go in North America and the Caribbean in 2026.

Writer Charlie Hobbs noted Buffalo's world-class architecture, the new $2.2 million Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park and "green spaces galore."

"2025 already saw the reopening of Wilkeson Pointe, part of New York State’s $300 million restoration plan for the Buffalo Waterfront with hiking trails, kayak and bike rentals, and eventually, a public beach, while the first-phase rollout of the 100-acre Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Park begins in 2026 with the unveiling of a pedestrian bridge that will link the west side to the waterfront," Hobbs wrote.
