Aaron Watson, Neal McCoy Free Concerts at Old Town Rig Down

The 4th Annual Old Town Rig Down will take place on September 12th and 13th in Nacogdoches.

This event features some of the most amazing chromed-out big rigs in the country, all on display along the beautiful brick streets of Downtown Nacogdoches.

Truckers from all over America, and even a few from Canada, will make the trek to the Oldest Town in Texas to show off their rigs.

It's free to come see the trucks, take pictures, and enjoy the live music and other attractions. Numerous food trucks from across the area will be set up downtown, as well.

Hours of the Old Town Rig Down will be noon to 10 pm on Friday, September 12, and 10 am to 11 pm on Saturday, September 13. When the sun sets, it's lights on for the big rigs. You'll want to take pictures of the lights, the neons, and other fantastic glowing truck decor.

Around 5 p.m., awards will be presented on stage at Festival Park. There will be awards for best combo, best day cab bobtail, best sleeper bobtail, people's choice, and best of show.

In 2024, country music legend Neal McCoy wowed the crowd with his performance, and he will be returning for this year's Old Town Rig Down.

Following Neal's show, Texas favorite Aaron Watson will take the stage.

Did I mention that these concerts are free to the community?
