Rowdyfest Outdoor 90s Country Experience

Rowdy Creek Ranch · 4048 State Highway 300, Gilmer, TX

This show has already passed. Rowdy Creek Ranch keeps its upcoming events page current with the next outdoor concert dates.

Rowdyfest was the ranch's annual outdoor 90s country night, an evening built around the decade that still fills dance floors in East Texas: honky-tonk anthems, country ballads, and cowboy rock played on an outdoor stage under autumn skies. The lineup mixed 90s country tribute acts with regional bands, and the event ran from 6:00 to 11:00 PM, long enough to catch the sunset over the ranch and the first stars coming up behind the oaks.

The venue

Rowdy Creek Ranch is a winery and event property on State Highway 300, with an outdoor stage, hay-bale seating, and the wide-open Gilmer countryside as the backdrop. It hosts a mix of live music, dance nights, and seasonal events through the year, which makes it one of the closest outdoor concert stops to the property. October is a good month for its outdoor stage: the evenings cool off, the bugs back off, and the sunset sits low enough to light the stage from the side.

The drive from the property

County Road 1070 to Rowdy Creek Ranch is about 35 minutes, dropping south through the Titus County farmland toward Gilmer. For anyone considering the property, a venue like this is worth watching: the ranch imports some of the closest outdoor live music in the region, and its events calendar turns over often enough that something new lands on it most months.
