| What Are The Houston Rodeo Times |
When Does the Rodeo Actually Start?
Let's cut to the chase. The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo is a massive event, and the schedule can be as confusing as a bucking bronco.
- Weekdays: The rodeo action kicks off around 6:45 PM. But remember, this is Texas, so don't be surprised if it starts a little later. It's all part of the charm.
- Weekends: If you prefer your rodeo with a side of brunch, the show starts earlier, around 2:45 PM. Perfect for those who want to maximize their rodeo and barbecue intake.
More Than Just Bulls and Broncs
While the rodeo itself is a thrilling spectacle of human courage and animal athleticism, let's not forget about the real stars of the show: the concerts! Once the dust settles from the arena, some of the biggest names in music take the stage. So, if you're more interested in country crooners or pop sensations, you might want to adjust your arrival time accordingly.
Timing is Everything
Now, you might be wondering, "When do the gates open?" Well, to avoid any pre-rodeo meltdowns, it's wise to arrive early. Gates usually open a couple of hours before the rodeo starts. This gives you plenty of time to grab a beer, a bite to eat, and a prime viewing spot.
