2022 Gathering in Alpine

February 18-19, 2022

We gathered on the campus of Sul Ross State University in Alpine on Friday, Feb. 18 and Saturday, Feb. 19, with more than forty scheduled performers who know cowboy life from the inside. See the full schedule.

Everyone enjoyed the ticketed shows, free sessions, chuckwagon breakfasts, keynote address, open mic sessions, Youth Poetry Contest, and Saturday night dance. Everything's more fun under the big skies of Alpine!

If you can, consider making the trip to West Texas for 2023. It's a beautiful time in the cool, crisp mountain air of the Big Bend region, and the atmosphere in our small town is electric when so many talented people are in one place.

What Was New for 2022

The Gathering held a Saturday night dance after the evening show, at the Alpine Civic Center. Craig Carter and the Spur of the Moment Band performed. We also offered supper each night at the Civic Center, to add more dining capacity in Alpine for attendees.
