About The Big Texas Sale

The Big Texas Sale & The Texas Wagyu Association Spring Meeting & get together May 17 & 18,2024

Step into the west and experience Fort Worth’s exciting attractions, shopping and incredible dining during your stay for The Big Texas. Take the whole family and visit the Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District, which tells the true history of Texas’s famous livestock industry. While you’re there, watch the Fort Worth Herd, the world’s only twice daily longhorn cattle drive featuring authentic cowboys and cowgirls dressed in period clothing from the era of 1865. 

It’s time to celebrate the fabulous breed of  Wagyu at The Big Texas and make this a memorable event that will become a longstanding tradition for all who attend the TWA membership meeting and get together followed by the Big sale at Billy Bobs!
