The Franklin Rodeo Parade is Saturday, May 14th at 12pm in downtown Franklin. The parade kicks off a week of all things rodeo in Franklin.
Rodeo week in Franklin includes the rodeo parade on May 14, the free Franklin Rodeo Experience on May 18, and finally the Rodeo May 19-20-21 at the Ag Expo Center.
Here’s a look at the parade route:
Since 1949, cowboys and cowgirls have stampeded to Franklin, Tennessee in early May to participate in what is billed as the largest rodeo east of the Mississippi. The Franklin Rodeo is a project of the Franklin Noon Rotary Club, which has now celebrated over six decades of excitement since its beginnings.
The Franklin Noon Rotary Club was chartered January 13, 1948 with 14 members. Judge Jim Warren served as the club’s first president. Despite its humble beginnings, today the club has almost 150 members representing a large cross section of business backgrounds in one of Middle Tennessee’s favorite places to live.
The Franklin Rodeo brings over 18,000 screaming fans year after year. It is one of the longest running family events in Middle Tennessee.
