About this event
The National Western Stock Show Parade kicks off Stock Show season with more than 30 longhorn cattle walking through the streets of downtown Denver, joined by riders and parade entries. The route starts at Union Station at 17th Street and finishes at 17th and Glenarm, and the parade has been a downtown tradition since the 1960s.
Our take: After the parade, head to the Stock Show Fair at McGregor Square for miniature therapy horses, music, a food market and ice skating.
