Davie’s downtown is a Western town: the rodeo arena, a 1918 schoolhouse museum, a 1947 woman’s club hall and the bars and cafes along Davie Road and Griffin Road. The town calls the Bergeron Rodeo Grounds, “located in the historical western theme downtown district,” Davie’s main tourist attraction for more than 40 years. This guide covers what is there, what is coming up and how to get in and park.
