Come celebrate the history of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo and the official kick off to Rodeo season on Go Texan Day! All Houstonians are invited to attend this free event in downtown Houston. A Go Texan Day proclamation will officially kick off the event, followed by free chopped barbecue sandwiches provided by the World’s Championship Bar-B-Que Committee. Enjoy live music, take your photo atop a Texas Longhorn steer and visit with Rodeo volunteers representing the more than 100 committees to learn more about this annual Houston tradition.
