Gallup Events

If everything goes according to plan, I should be moved to Jamestown, New Mexico by the beginning of February.

There's a few events in 2018 in Gallup that are interesting and ought to be fun to attend. They include:

• Every August, Gallup hosts Native Americans from across the United States in a massive Inter-tribal ceremonial. The Indoor/Outdoor Marketplace and the Ceremonial Showroom present the country’s most complete and varied displays of genuine Indian fine arts, including Navajo rugs, katsinas, jewelry, pottery and basketry. Socials, rodeos and parades round out the events.  

• Gallup is famous for its rodeos and the entertainment they provide. Annually in June, Gallup hosts the State’s largest amateur event, the Lions Club Rodeo.  

• The first weekend of December brings color and excitement to the red sandstone bluffs and canyons of Gallup, New Mexico as 200 balloons from around the world take flight from this spectacular setting.

(UPDATE 12/1/17):

• National Fiery Foods & Barbecue Show at the Sandia Resort and Casino in Albuquerque, New Mexico on March 2-4, 2018.
