Looking for a Texas-sized flavor fest? Join us for the 41st Annual Pasadena Livestock Show & Rodeo BBQ Cook-Off, happening September 12 & 13 at the Pasadena Fairgrounds (7601 Red Bluff Rd). Sample award-winning barbecue, enjoy live music, and swing by the Chuck Wagon booth for free BBQ, cold refreshments, and tunes galore — great eats and great times for the whole crew. Be sure to catch the free shuttle running from San Jacinto College so the whole family can arrive hassle-free and start tasting!
Then saddle up for the Rodeo, running nightly starting September 19 inside the Ross Kelly Arena. Each evening features PRCA rodeo action beginning at 7:30 p.m. (except Sunday, Sept. 21 when events kick off at 2:30 p.m.) paired with live performances by artists like Wade Bowen, Aaron Watson, Neal McCoy, and more. Whether you’re into high-flying bull-riding or toe-tappin’ tunes, there’s something for all ages. Don’t miss the rodeo parade, rodeo thrills, and exciting entertainment under the Texas skies!
