About the Live Prescott to Phoenix Pony Express Run

DESCRIPTION:

The Pony Express Re-ride is a 10-day recreation of the 1,966-mile route of the 19th-century Pony Express, the old-school form of Federal Express. Riders carry mail from St. Joseph, Missouri, to Sacramento, California, the same way they did in April 1860 and October 1861.

This 24-hour-a-day ten-day event is a fantastic treat for anyone along the path of the re-enactment of the historic ride. 
For the full schedule and where to see the Pony Express pass by, see the NPS site: https://www.nps.gov/articles/000/see-the-pony-express-re-ride.htm. 

Hours are estimated and depend on the horses. However, if you are in Missouri, Utah, Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas, Nevada or California, you can see the Pony Express live as it passes through cities in these states.

PLEASE NOTE: Treat all televised and venue-specific events (sporting, concerts, trade shows, etc.) as estimated. Several factors can cause an event to move dates at the last minute, including weather, strikes, natural disasters, political upheaval, conflicting programming, pandemics, and current events. Because of this, always verify the event with the promotor before committing resources. LEEP often estimates dates based on the previous year's schedules, as the final dates are unknown until a few months, weeks, or days before the event. If the date is known to be estimated, you will see an (est) following the date in the title.
