DENVER — Denver’s streets are about to be decked out with cattle, horses and wagons for the 2024 National Western Stock Show Kick-Off Parade.
The parade, which precedes the National Western Stock Show, is held annually to celebrate western traditions in Colorado. Kicking off the 118th National Western Stock Show, this year’s parade is taking place Thursday, Jan. 4 at noon.
The parade begins outside Denver’s Union Station and marches 12 blocks down 17th Street to Glenarm Place. Drivers should prepare for closures around the parade route.
