From early in the 1930's till the present, the annual event we all know as "Fiesta" has been an important element of Durango and the surounding area. The annual parade has always been a showcase of local flavor and color. A variety of folks participate in the procession down Main Ave. This parade is as old as the rodeo, and we couldn't imagine Fiesta without it. The rodeo has always provided some of the best entertainment for participants and spectators alike. The rodeo is the main attraction of Fiesta and incorporates many novelty shows and acts to spice thing up a bit.
