Some of country music's biggest names (and some major pop acts, too!) are set to take the stage at the 2017 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo in March. Chris Stapleton, Willie Nelson and many more will perform during the annual event.

The 2017 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo will take place on March 7-26, at Houston's NRG Park. Aaron Watson will be the first artist to perform at this year's event, on March 7; the singer-songwriter helped announce the Rodeo's lineup via Facebook Live just after midnight on Jan. 9. In addition to Stapleton (March 9) and Nelson (March 18), other artists performing at the 2017 Houston Rodeo include Thomas Rhett (March 15), Florida Georgia Line (March 20) and Zac Brown Band (March 26), among others; a complete lineup is below.

In addition to the Houston Rodeo's mainstage performances, up-and-comers will be playing at the Hideout, a pop-up honky-tonk, and during the World's Championship Bar-B-Que Contest. Visit RodeoHouston.com to see the full lineup.
