WHO INFLUENCED OUR CONTESTANTS: For the past four years in winter, we have hosted our youth arts competition, Step Into The Light, to pay tribute to Martin Luther King Jr. who gave his notable and memorable 1964 speech to the National Republican Convention that was held here at the Cow Palace. Our event invites high school students from across the Bay Area to participate in this creative competition, giving each participant an opportunity to pay homage to MLK Jr.’s message of shining a light on current events and topics that need to be addressed, all through their creative interpretation and expression. This is just one of the many ways we give back each year, and we think you’ll enjoy this Community. episode of our docu-series, Guess What’s Coming to the Cow Palace?

We encourage you to check out all our episodes from Season One (19 episodes), from sports to iconic sold out concerts and everyone’s favorite Grand National Rodeo week 3-part series, they’re all on CowPalace.com for your next bingewatch!

A very special thanks goes to our docu-series supporter, @eventhubofficial who plays an incredible role as our docu-series Presenting Sponsor. We’re also ecstatic to have them on board as our Official Ticketing Partner for our calendar of memorable events here in 2026.

On a not so side note, we’re celebrating our 85th Anniversary this year, so we’re pulling out all the stops to showcase our notable resurgence, but also spotlight our long history of entertaining the Greater Bay Area via ICONIC events since 1941.

We look forward to seeing you at our next event, so thank you for watching and be sure to sign up for our e-news to keep you in the know with all our upcoming events at CowPalace.com.
