2 3 NOV. 2025 NEWSLETTER Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo January 16 - February 7, 2026 THE FORT WORTH STOCK SHOW & RODEO www.fwssr.com NEWS BRIEFS PRESENTED BY The Auditorium Entertainment Series returns for the 2026 FWSSR. Comedy to classic rock artists bring laughs and toe-tapping good times to guests in the iconic Fort Worth venue loved by Stock Show fans, the Will Rogers Auditorium. Scheduled for Jan. 23 and 24 is Canadian crooner, Colter Wall who will be joined by Texan Hayden Redwine for performances that will highlight the impact that these young artists are having on the authentic cowboy music scene. Ongoing negotiations will result in additional announcements in the coming weeks. In the meantime, FWSSR Insiders should be on the lookout for emails with additional Auditorium Entertainment Series announcements. If you’re not already an FWSSR Insider, please sign up here and get all the information you need for Stock Show fun and excitement. Known for his traditional approach, Colter Wall is a country music standout, beyond the reaches of corporate Music Row. In his recently announced single “1800 Miles,” he declares you won’t see him dancing, and his microphone stays clipped in the stand, as he continues to deliver authentic country music backed by his longtime band, The Scary Prairie Boys. West Texas native Hayden Redwine doubtlessly brings a raw, captivating and easily recognizable sound to country music. The emerging talent’s first-rate songwriting, exclusively reserved for telling stories of personal experiences, compels listeners to be invested in each song in his growing catalog. Raised on his family’s ranch and later spending years competing in rodeos, the cowboy lifestyle in its most authentic form is an unwavering part of his identity. Redwine uniquely blends the country, alt-country and western genres together for a memorable sound all of his own. Making his mark in an industry hungry for authenticity, Redwine boasts unmistakably unique vocals and an inability to be anything but genuine. Tickets to the Auditorium Entertainment Series provide admission to Stock Show features including shopping, livestock and horse shows, petting zoo, carnival midway (rides and games sold separately) milking parlor and more (rodeo in Dickies Arena requires a separate ticket).
