Rodeo Day and the parade

Osceola County keeps Rodeo Day as a school holiday during rodeo week instead of Presidents Day; the rodeo traces it to at least 1953. On the School District of Osceola County’s 2026-27 calendar it is Friday, Feb. 19, 2027. See our schools guide for the rest of the calendar.

The Silver Spurs Rodeo Parade once ran down Broadway in downtown Kissimmee. It now rides through downtown St. Cloud, about nine miles east, with equestrian groups, marching bands, vintage cars and local organizations. The 2027 parade is 10 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 13.

A short history

Osceola County ranchers formed the Silver Spurs Club after riding in Gov. Spessard Holland’s inaugural parade in Tallahassee in 1941, the rodeo’s history page says. Their first rodeo, in March 1944 in a pasture at today’s Neptune Road and Kings Highway, charged a war bond for admission and drew about 1,000 people. The first full-dress rodeo followed on July 4, 1944, and the first mid-winter rodeo in February 1951.

The club moved to U.S. 192 in 1950 and opened today’s indoor Silver Spurs Arena, with 8,300 seats, in October 2003. The nonprofit club has more than 300 members.
