58th Dixie National Livestock Show and Rodeo is coming up. Everything you need to know
Each year fans, cowboys, and cowgirls travel from throughout the nation to the Mississippi State Fairgrounds in Jackson to experience the Dixie National Livestock Show and Rodeo.
With this year's rodeo making the 58th celebration, fans will get more events and live interactions with animals, rodeo riders along with top-tier country music acts. Among them is "Yellowstone" star Lainey Wilson. Her performance is already sold out and after-market tickets are going for more than $300.
For six weeks, the Fairgrounds will be host to multiple livestock shows, the Dixie National Rodeo, the Sale of Junior Champions, the Rodeo Days Expo, Mississippi AG and Outdoor Expo, horse shows, parades, afterparties and concert performances.
Although style show events have started and will proceed throughout January, actual rodeo competitions will be at 7 p.m. each night Feb. 10 through Feb. 18 at the Mississippi Coliseum.
Mississippi Commissioner of Agriculture and Commerce Andy Gipson took to social media recently to promote the rodeo.
I love promoting Mississippi, and one of the greatest ways we have to do that is through the Dixie National which runs now through February 19th. Join me on @paulgalloshow tomorrow at 8:05 a.m. to get all the details - livestock and horse shows, rodeo, concert lineup and more! pic.twitter.com/oAmuGZuDBe
