Put on your boots and cowboy hat. The Wild Wild West Festival is back! It kicks off tonight-May 13th, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. with live entertainment at the big tent located at C Street and Union Ave. The two bands performing are Barn Burners and Southern Belle.

The Professional Bull Riders and Greater Pueblo Chamber of Commerce are hosting the Wild Wild West Fest, which runs May 14 through May 16. If you didn't attend last year, which was the inaugural year, here's what you can expect. There's food, live entertainment, street vendors, carnival rides, a pancake breakfast and more. This all takes place on the riverwalk and the Union Avenue Historic District in downtown Pueblo.

Admission is $2 a person. The Greater Pueblo Chamber of Commerce says net proceeds from the event will be used to create a grant to help local non-profits.

Here's Thursday's schedule:
