Rich in history and tradition, the oldest livestock show in the nation, The Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo will celebrate its 116th anniversary this January 13-February 4, 2012, at the Will Rogers Memorial Center.
This Fort Worth legendary annual event started in 1896 with a group of local cattlemen in the Stockyards National Historic District. In 1944, the show moved from the Stockyards to the Cultural District at the Will Rogers Memorial Center, which was the most opulent facility of its time. In 2008, the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo was inducted into the Pro Rodeo Hall of Fame and is now the World’s Largest Indoor Rodeo.
During the show, visitors and locals alike can experience a variety of entertainment from livestock exhibitors, “Best of the West” Ranch Rodeo, PRCA Extreme Bull Riding, Cowboys of Color Rodeo and much, much more! Don’t forget to download the FWSSR app for the full entertainment schedule!
