Plan the visit
Hold October 23-25 for the Stockyards
The organizer confirms the 2026 Gathering for October 23-25 in the Fort Worth Stockyards. Use the official schedule to choose the specific rodeo, poetry, music and western-heritage programs that matter to the trip.
Expect the district to be part of the experience
The event is embedded in the historic Stockyards rather than isolated at a suburban fairground. Allow time for walking between event activities and the district's regular cattle-drive, dining and visitor attractions.
Check ticket requirements by program
A gathering with several types of programming can have different access rules by event. Review the organizer's current ticket and schedule pages before assuming one admission covers every activity.
