Experience the Old West "the way it was." That's the theme for the Western Legends Roundup, which is one of America's largest and most authentic celebration of Western life and film.

The Roundup includes the change to eat breakfast with the starts, mingle with them at other times and get autographs.

There will also be Western music, cowboy poetry, other entertainment, chuck wagon food, vendors, a Children's Roundup, a Mountain Man Camp and other events.

Sets from some of the old Western shows can still be seen in the Kanab area.
