The Dancing Horses performance is an event you cannot afford to miss. It features horses trained to dance to traditional Mexican music, with their riders performing alongside them. The Car Show will display a lineup of custom SUVs, trucks, and classic cars to admire. The Onion Eating Contest is famous and open to all ages, with categories for youth, adults, and beauty queens. The Kids Zone is where children can enjoy various activities and rides, including a petting zoo.
