FORT WORTH, Texas – Located in the heart of the Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District, Billy Bob’s Texas first opened their doors in 1981. Since then, country music stars of all generations have taken the stage for visitors to enjoy live music every month, making it a must-go venue. From concerts, to bull riding, to line dance classes, and more, Billy Bob’s Texas truly has it all. Marking its 40th Anniversary, Billy Bob’s Texas is having a year-long celebration by bringing in some of the biggest names in music as well as a few of the hottest upcoming stars from across the country. Special guests hitting the stage as part of the 40th Anniversary weekend celebration include Larry, Steve & Rudy: The Gatlin Brothers (Apr 01) and Country Music Hall of Fame member Hank Williams, Jr. (Apr 2 & 3) and more to entertain unlike no other!
Throughout March, Billy Bob’s Texas has booked a wide array of talent from start to finish. There is no better way to kick off the month than with the high-energy of Shane Smith & The Saints (Mar 5), followed up by the retro, yet modern sounds of Charley Crockett (Mar 6), Koe Wetzel & Hardy (Mar 10 & 14), and Aaron Lewis (Mar 12). Country and rock-inspired superstar Kip Moore (Mar 13) will certainly delight every fan. Bringing their special blend of country and blues-infused rock, The Steel Woods (Mar 18) pave the way for Stoney Larue (Mar 19), Easton Corbin (Mar 20), and Samantha Fish (Mar 26). Hitmaker Justin Moore (Mar 27) will wrap up the month with a mixture of twang and southern rock influence that is guaranteed to have fans on their feet. You will not want to miss a single moment this month at Billy Bob’s Texas!
I have spent so much time researching many of these venues that are open now, and what is going on there. What steps are they taking to remain open during covid regulations?
What shows ARE REALLY going on around America? Well, not long ago general manager Mr. Marty Travis announced this big extravaganza that will take place April 2nd and April 3rd, and will feature none other than Mr. Hank Williams Jr.
Billy Bob’s Texas first opened on April 1, 1981- which means our 40th anniversary is April 1, 2021. We’re celebrating 40 years of good music and great times for the entire month of April!
The full concert line up is still to be announced, but after 40 years of honky tonkin’- it’s bound to be one party after the next.
I’m not in any way a fan of Mr. Scotty McCreery, I think his music stinks. However this article was so positive, that especially now, I think we all need to read something POSITIVE amid all of this bickering and finger pointing.

“I love having an opportunity to help a great cause like ACM Lifting Lives, and doing it while performing at a legendary venue like Billy Bob’s Texas is an added bonus,” said McCreery.
