Come see us in Oklahoma's Stockyards City tomorrow 🤠
Tomorrow is the day! The Slash O' Ranch Longhorns will kick off the event at 10:00 a.m. by parading down the street. They will begin at the iconic Oklahoma National Stockyards archway on Exchange. The longhorns will be in the National Saddlery Arena until 2 pm, then they will return to Oklahoma National Stockyards, via Agnew.
An authentic Chuck Wagon camp will be set up where you can view demonstrations of traditional cooking. At noon, samplings of cobbler, stew, cornbread and more will be on hand.
The Corral stage will feature live music by many talented entertainers, including Tanner Fields, Cowboy Jim Garling, and Maddox Ross. The Little Miss and Mr. Stockyards City pageant will begin at noon. Charros Del Roble will be doing roping demonstrations at 11:30 am and again at 1:30 pm. The Corral stage is located at Exchange Avenue and Youngs Boulevard.
A Made in Oklahoma Market will include locally made and produced items. Various types of demonstrations and tastings will be held throughout the day. The Market will be next to Little Joe’s Boots.
The Kids Corral will have many fun activities for kids of all ages! Located adjacent to the National Saddlery Arena, there will be a petting zoo, pony rides, face painting, and dummy roping. It will also be an opportunity to learn about the importance of agriculture in Oklahoma.
Next to Shorty’s Caboy Hattery a Western Photo Booth will be set up.
Again this year, the Stockyards Stampede will include some artistic flair! Oklahoma plein air painters will be stationed in various locations to capture the Stockyards Stampede’s spirit with color and form! You can see art in action and meet the various artists.
Speaking of art! How about some culinary art? Oklahoma’s Best Beef Competition will begin at 11:00 a.m. Beef producers from across the state will be competing for the coveted prize. If you would like to sample and vote on your favorite, wristbands are $25, and the proceeds benefit the Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Foundation. The awards ceremony will be at 4:00 p.m.
This will be a perfect opportunity to experience all that is Stockyards City! Visit the restaurants, shops, and get pictures of the things you can only see in Stockyards City!
