The Travis County Expo Center will set the stage for some fantastic rodeo competition as Rodeo Austin brings the fans not only talented athletes but some careers in the making with up-and-comers who are chomping a the bit to show what they’re made of. With the official title slogan, “Where weird meets western,” (as you might expect) this event brings the rodeo, a stock show, a fair, and live music direct to the Texas Hill Country, as it has done each year for now 81 years. From its humble beginnings as a stock show with 16 animals to a premier event that draws a crowd to the state capital from across Texas and beyond, it’s a first-class show worth the ticket.
