We are so excited to welcome our Junior Livestock Show exhibitors back for the 2021 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo™.

While our Junior Livestock Show and Horse Show competitions will be held as private events in March, many of our auctions will be scheduled in May to accommodate the current health and safety guidelines. These auctions are currently planned for in person, but we also will have virtual and live steam capabilities. Auction buyers will be able to bid live at the in-person event, or online, and additional details will be announced once available. While we will not be able to include the livestock projects in each auction, we plan to invite our eligible junior exhibitors to participate in the live events.

Junior Livestock Show exhibitors who are eligible for the May auctions will be contacted in April. The 2021 sales and auctions will be a new experience for everyone, and we are so grateful to have such supportive participants working alongside our team.

These changes are based on the current health situation, and we are dedicated to keep you informed of our auction plans. The 2021 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo brings new opportunities and challenges, but together, we can face them with optimism. Let's get ready for an exciting year.
