(Weatherford, Tx) – Two of the biggest events in Parker County are going in different directions.

The Weatherford Chamber of Commerce says they have made the tough decision to cancel this year’s Parker County Peach Festival.  The festival, which draws up to 60,000 people each year, was originally set for July 11th, instead the Chamber plans to hold an entire week of smaller peach themed celebrations.

On the other hand, Parker County Sheriff’s Posse officials announced that the 2020 PRCA Frontier Days Rodeo is happening, on the original dates of July 7-11 at the PCSP Rodeo Grounds and Event Center.

The Parker County Livestock Show will also still go on June 7-11.  Parker County Livestock Improvement Association Show Superintendent Clint Petzold says, “We have adjusted our stock show schedule to abide by social distancing requirements that have been put in place.”
