Hailed as one of “The Top 101 Western Events” by American Cowboy Magazine, the Cattlemen’s Days is one of the longest-running annual events in Colorado that started back in 1900. For this year, the event promises the same kind of cowboy entertainment that includes bull riding, barrel racing, and other cowboy and cowgirl traditions.
The Cattlemen’s Days will be held from Thursday to Saturday, July 13th to 15th, 2023 in Gunnison, which is about 4 hours from Denver by car. Expect parades, rodeos, carnivals, vendors, livestock exhibits, fun games, and competitions. So if you’ve always wanted to experience the old west, this is the perfect opportunity to do so.
