Coors will lead a procession of more than 30 Longhorn cattle, along with horses, Western wagons, and the sights and sounds that make the Stock Show iconic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Stock Show Kick-Off parade brings the spirit of the West straight into downtown Denver and sets the tone for the entire National Western,\u201d said Wes Allison, President and CEO of the National Western Stock Show. \u201cWith Pete Coors as Grand Marshal and the opening of the new Sue Anschutz-Rodgers Livestock Center and The Legacy building, this year\u2019s parade marks an unforgettable start to our 120th anniversary.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Following the parade, visitors can continue the celebration at the Stock Show Fair at McGregor Square, featuring therapy horses, Western royalty, a food market, and more family-friendly activities.<\/p>\n<p>The Stock Show officially starts Saturday, January 10, and runs through Sunday, January 25. This year marks a milestone with the opening of the 30-acre Sue Anschutz-Rodgers Livestock Center and The Legacy, the National Western\u2019s new world headquarters. These new facilities allow the Stock Show to host more events, welcome more exhibitors, and enhance the experience for fans, while continuing the traditions that have defined the Stock Show for 120 years.<\/p>\n<p>With over 300 events and activities, the 2026 Stock Show truly has something for everyone. Guests can experience nearly 30 professional rodeo performances, including PBR Bull Riding, The Mexican Rodeo Extravaganza presented by Hutchison Western and Chevron, the MLK Jr. African American Heritage Rodeo, and more. Fans can watch world-class horse shows, see grand champion livestock crowned, and explore expanded fan-favorite attractions like the King Soopers Petting Farm. The new Livestock Center and The Legacy also provide more space, giving visitors new ways to experience the Stock Show.<\/p>\n<p>The National Western Stock Show draws visitors from all 50 states and more than 30 countries, generating an economic impact of $171 million for the Metro Denver area. A 501(c)(3) nonprofit, the Stock Show also supports the National Western Scholarship Trust, which awards more than 100 scholarships totaling over $550,000 annually to students pursuing careers in agriculture, rural medicine, and veterinary sciences.<\/p>\n<p>Parking and Transportation<\/p>\n<p>Even with the expanded campus, parking and transportation remain the same as in previous years. Nearby lots fill quickly, and several are permit-only, so visitors are encouraged to use the free parking and complimentary shuttle service at Coors Field, with easy access off Park Avenue and Wazee Street. The Coors Field lot opens daily at 8 a.m., with shuttles running every 15 minutes. Guests should plan to arrive at least one hour before their ticketed event.<\/p>\n<p>Other options include ride-sharing services, with designated drop-off and pick-up in front of the Denver Coliseum, or the RTD N Line, which stops at the National Western Center station for a short walk or shuttle ride to the event.<\/p>\n<p>Grounds admission and event tickets are on sale now at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nationalwestern.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">nationalwestern.com.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>For more information about the parade, event schedules, parking, and tickets, visit\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nationalwestern.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">nationalwestern.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Photo Credit NWSS Volunteer Photographers DENVER, CO &mdash; The National Western Stock Show, presented by CommonSpirit Health, will celebrate the start of its 120th anniversary with its iconic Kick-Off Parade on Thursday, January 8, at 12 p.m. The parade brings Western heritage to the heart of downtown Denver and sets the stage for a Stock Show bigger than ever before.
