Rodeo Days: Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo Special at The Inn at Dos Brisas

Unleash the Cowboy Within! March 2 – 22, 2010

In the 1950s, The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo™ coined the phrase, “Go Texan” in honor of the annual celebration of Western heritage that has brought Texans together since the rodeo event was first held in the 1930s. This year, the exclusive retreat, The Inn at Dos Brisas, situated just outside of Houston, wants guests to “Go Texan” with a luxury deal of a lifetime! The Inn will feature a special Rodeo Days package throughout the rodeo, March 2-22, 2010, which allows The Inn at Dos Brisas’ guests to experience the uniquely Texas lifestyle.

A special perk with your stay at The Inn at Dos Brisas is that you will enjoy the ultimate connection in action packed seats. In Reliant Stadium, you will be one of the select few in the luxury private sky box – in true Texas style – feasting on good ole’ Texas BBQ and other savory treats and shaking hands or swapping tales with true cowboys performing in the rodeo. But there’s more to the rodeo than just bull riding and calf roping.

At night the rodeo lassoes the stars – some of country music’s biggest names including Rascal Flatts and Dierks Bentley, to the big stage to give Texas sized concerts. Day two of the package, guests really get to “Go Texan” when they saddle up western style for horseback riding with a professional wrangler in the two acres indoor arena and along groomed trails at The Inn at Dos Brisas.
