## About

Stockyards City celebrates Oklahoma's Western heritage with its annual Cowboy Christmas Parade and Santa Stroll. The legendary parade kicks off along Exchange and Agnew Avenues, famously led by a herd of majestic Slash O Ranch Texas Longhorns steered by authentic drovers in 10-gallon hats. The procession features equestrian riding clubs, horse-drawn wagons, marching bands, antique tractors, and colorful civic floats, concluding with the arrival of Cowboy Santa in a western carriage. Following the parade, families can stroll the historic district to meet Cowboy Santa for free photos at Rodeo Cinema, enjoy live bluegrass and country carols, and warm up with complimentary hot cocoa.

Family Experience & Accessibility:
• Stroller Accessibility: Paved sidewalks line both sides of Agnew Avenue, offering clear viewing spots and easy maneuvering for strollers and wagons.
• Nursing & Rest Spots: Family restrooms and baby changing stations are open to the public inside the historic Rodeo Cinema and Cattlemen's Steakhouse lobby.
• Age Suitability: All ages; kids especially love watching the impressive longhorns and petting horses along the parade staging area.
• Sensory Tips: Marching drums and hooves on pavement create exciting parade sounds; bring noise-canceling ear muffs for infants during the livestock procession.
