National Western Stock Show

2025 Edition

I enjoy going every January – it’s cold, there’s a ton of people and parking is difficult- unless you know the secrets: Go on a weekday, early. Park at the Coors Field lot and take the shuttle and wear all the winter western wear that you keep buying.

Go to the basement to see the animals being prepped. Then it’s up one floor to the judging. Then to the 2nd floor in the back to the Coors Art Show. Amazing western art. None of it less than $10,000!! I couldn’t decide who had the best art so I voted for Thomas Blackshear who I’ve met – he lived at one time nextdoor to my folks.
