Fiesta Del Charro
February 14th at 5:30 pmFiesta Del Charro at the 64th Annual Riverside County Fair & National Date Festival will take place Sunday, February 14th at 5:30 pm in the Grandstand Arena.
Charros are professional cowboys who take extreme pride in their riding and roping abilities. They create a whole culture around the equestrian lifestyles. Charreria is the most noble of the traditions evolved from over 500 years of Mexico’s equestrian heritage.
Floreo de reata (trick roping), a beautiful art created in Mexico, is performed by a charro who possesses exquisite control of the lariat and needs almost no set-up time to move from one trick to another. A charro glides, spinning a dazzling array of classic butterflies, merry-go-round, wedding rings, sky high umbrellas, and many more tricks during his roping routine.
