Wyatt Earp Days in Tombstone

May 27, 2007 | By Kelley Koehler | Filed Under Tucson Events 

At a loss for what to do over the long Memorial Day weekend?  Head to Tombstone for Wyatt Earp Days 2007! 

Along with a carnival for the kids, there are a variety of re-enactments, gunfight skit and costume competitions, raffles, a chili cook-off, Wyatt Earp look-alike competitions, and the ever popular souvenir t-shirts.

As an introduction to actual life in Tombstone, the town too tough to die: rules for the gunfight skit include not pointing or waving weapons at the crowd, and participants must have all weapons and ammunition inspected prior to the event, so that no live rounds are “in play” during the re-enactments. 

Events are free to watch, and will take place on historic Allen Street, in Tombstone, Arizona, 10am-4pm, through May 28th.  Proceeds benefit the Tombstone Lions and support their charitable activities.  Tombstone is about an hour’s drive from Tucson.
