  • Location: 210 W. Market St., San Antonio, TX 78205
  • Cost: Free with registration

Tippin’ its hat and celebrating the legacy of the cowboy, cowgirl and vaquero, the Briscoe presents its annual National Day of the Cowboy celebration.

This FREE community event, which includes free admission to the museum, features indoor and outdoor activities across the museum’s River Walk campus for cowpokes of all ages to enjoy and explore the West.

This year’s celebration will shine a spotlight on the enduring legacy of the vaquero and the vital role vaqueros played in shaping the American West. From ranching and cattle drives to the art of roping, branding and horsemanship, vaqueros helped lay the foundation for today’s cowboy traditions and culture.

Held throughout the museum and in the scenic McNutt Sculpture Garden, National Day of the Vaquero / Día Nacional del Vaquero brings the West to life with music, art, storytelling, and hands-on activities for visitors of all ages. Guests can enjoy cowboy and vaquero traditions, including lasso demonstrations, crafts, cowboy poetry, chuckwagon treats, and live Western music while celebrating the rich cultural heritage that continues
to influence Texas and the West today.
