The second annual Wrangler COWGIRL 30 Under 30 Empowered Gala is set to take place on Friday, March 10, 2023, at Hotel Drover in Fort Worth, Texas.

The Empowered Gala was created to honor the upcoming classes of COWGIRL 30 Under 30, the flagship program created by the editors and executives at COWGIRL Magazine. COWGIRL is honored to once again host our special event at this truly unforgettable venue.

Whether they be corporate executives, professional athletes, media professionals, performers, or working cowgirls, it is COWGIRL 30 Under 30’s aim to shed light and show just how vital these young and talented women are to its industry. COWGIRL 30 Under 30 also strives to create and grow a network of individuals who can serve as role models and mentors for the future leaders of our industry.
