HELLDORADO - 2008

October 17-19

Tombstone, A. T.

Great days will come and go this weekend.  Tomorrow may be greater, but it can not equal the interest and the excitement of the 79th annual Helldorado celebration.  With blue skies above us, green hills around us, old friends walking the streets, pageantry and entertainment on all sides, worries or cares will be forgotten, headaches and ill wills will vanish. 

Friday starts off with the National Anthem at 10:30 and entertainment, every ten minutes, running right up until 5.00PM.  Saturday will be a very packed day, starting at 10:00AM and running until 5:00PM, with over 30 different entertainment groups from belly dancers, gunfighters, line dancers, cowboy stories and song, music and just plain good old fun.

This year, Helldorado is proud to welcome back World Champion Gunslinger Joey Dillon.

Saturday night, Helldorado, Inc. hosts the annual Cowboy Social, at Tombstone Vigilante Hall, 22 E Allen St, where all the entertainers are welcome.  A good time WILL be had by all.

Once again, the parade steps off at 6th and Allen on Sunday at 11:00AM and proceeds to 2nd St.  The now renowned Cowboy Walkdown, will proceed down the same route to 4th and Allen.  This will be a real good photo opportunity for everyone.  The day's events will include the Yee Haw contest.  Of course there will be street entertainment as well as gunfights all afternoon after the parade.

Gentlemen, and ladies, get ready for the beard and mustache contest on Saturday afternoon.

Another 1851 Navy Colt 44 cal Black Power Revolver will be raffled off to a lucky visitor.  Who knows maybe you will be the winner this year.

The 2008 schedule will be posted as soon as it has been firmed up.  Of course, things like that can change right at the last minute, I wouldn't hold too much stock in it until you are here and watching the whole weekend unfold....

Below was the Helldorado 2007 schedule.  Certain times and events had to change during the weekend due to unforeseen circumstances.  It can also give you an idea of what you might expect to see this year.  Remember this is just a glimpse of what the weekend's layout will be like, and not who will be performing.  All participants are subject to availability and change is highly probable.

Helldorado, Inc. would like to invite everyone across the country to participate in Helldorado 2008, and hope to see you all in 2009
