The Dixie National Rodeo started in 1965 in Jackson, making this year its 59th year! Every time the rodeo comes to town, hundreds of people locally and from the entire state travel to Jackson for the rodeo events, concerts, and more.
Starting today and ending on February 17th, The Dixie National Rodeo will take place at the Mississippi Colosseum and throughout the Fairgrounds. Each day is filled with several different events and shows for everyone to attend along with concerts to wrap up the night this and next weekend only. This weekend’s performers include Colin Stough and Connor Smith on Friday February 9th, Tracy Byrd on Saturday February 10th, and Chris Cagle on Sunday February 11th. Other performers such as Meghan Moroney and Corey Kent will perform on nights next week.
Again, The Dixie National Rodeo is the perfect family-friendly event if you are looking for something to do this weekend or even next week! If you are interested in attending and want more information on events or want to pre-purchase tickets, you can head to dixienational.org where you can find all details and information regarding the rodeo.
