Country Stars Join Stampede
The lineup for Texas Stampede includes Alan Jackson on October 25; Robert Earl Keen and Willie Nelson on October 26; Toby Keith and Sara Evans on October 27; Phil Vassar and Martina McBride on October 27; and Clay Walker and Lee Ann Womack on October 28.
Rodeo stars risking life and limb for glory and – of course- cash, include Clint Corey (bareback), Bryan Fields (steer wrestling), Daniel Green and Allen Bach (team roping), Cody Hancock (bull riding), Charmayne James (barrel racing), Cody Ohl (calf roping), and Tom Reeves (saddle bronc riding).
Along with the musical performances, the Stampede marks the second most important rodeo in North America behind the National Finals Rodeo. The event features the Copenhagen Cup Finale to the summer Wrangler Pro Rodeo Tour. One cowboy will take home $700,000 – the richest regular-season rodeo purse.
The Texas Stampede is a charity event benefitting Children’s Medical Center of Dallas and the Pediatric Programs at UT Southwestern Medical Center.
Tickets for the event go on sale September 15 and are available through Ticketmaster.
