The Dixie National Rodeo may be four months away, but those wanting to attend what’s branded as the “Largest Rodeo East of the Mississippi River” can reserve their seats now.
The Mississippi Department of Agriculture and Commerce announced that tickets are on sale for the rodeo being held in Jackson for its 62nd year. 2027 dates are Feb. 12-14 and Feb. 17-20.
Tickets can be purchased either online or at the Mississippi Coliseum box office.
The Dixie National Rodeo includes events such as bareback bronc riding, saddle bronc riding, steer wrestling, team roping, tie down roping, barrel racing, and bull riding. Participants from across the country come to Jackson and try for their best showing, as the Dixie National serves as a qualifier for the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas.
