West Bottoms Roundup at the American Royal

Dust off your boots! We're headed to Kansas City's West Bottoms to explore the 124th annual American Royal Livestock Show.

During our visit, we'll learn about the American Royal's efforts to lead food and agriculture education and experiences through their livestock shows, barbecue competitions, rodeos, youth outreach and more. As the American Royal prepares to move to their future home in Wyandotte County, we'll get a sneak peek of what will become the hub of all things agriculture for generations to come. 

Since we'll enjoy burnt ends and walk to the barns to visit with the youth and their hogs, steers, sheep and goats, we recommend wearing comfortable clothes. 

When?
Friday, October 13
3 to 5 p.m.

Where?
The American Royal Complex
1701 American Royal Court
Kansas City, MO 64102
