Tickets for the National Western Stock Show scheduled for January 2023 are now on sale.
The 117th edition will run from Jan. 7 through Jan. 23, with adult tickets costing between $17 and $25 and children's tickets from $4-$5, depending on the day of the week. Kids under the age of two are free.
In 2021, the Stock Show went on hiatus due to the pandemic. This year, the event returned and hosted more than 580,000 people, KUSA-TV reported.
This year, Colorado State University professor Dr. Temple Grandin will serve as Grand Marshal for the 2023 Stock Show Kick-Off Parade.
Grandin is a renowned author and professor within CSU's Animal Sciences department, who's made strong contributions to the humane livestock handling realm and autism advocacy. Grandin was named a distinguished professor by CSU and has two equine centers named after her, including a center at CSU's satellite campus, Spur, on the grounds of National Western Center.
The parade will kick off the weeks-long Stock Show on Jan. 5. The parade was canceled last year due to frigid temperatures and icy conditions.
