The Fort Worth Herd

See the Old West come to life with the world’s ONLY twice-daily cattle drive. Real Texas cowhands lead a herd of legendary longhorns down East Exchange in the Stockyards at 11:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. It’s free for all, and every detail, from the drovers’ saddles and chaps to their boots and hats, embodies authentic Texas heritage.

Don’t miss your chance to follow in their hoofprints. It's not every day you see cattle roaming the streets of a modern metropolis — unless you're in Texas' own Unexpected City.

See it Like a (Trail) Boss: VIP-Style Access

For an exclusive look, blaze your trail to our Behind-the-Drive Experience at 1:30 p.m. every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at 129 East Exchange. Get up close with the longhorns, meet our drovers, and explore the traditions that connect us to historic Texas and the Old West. Admission is free!
