The experience
What's special
A PRCA rodeo run continuously since 1911 (barring a WWII-era pause and a 2020 COVID cancellation), known as 'Big Week', combining Wednesday Bull Riding, a Thursday-to-Sunday rodeo card of bareback riding, saddle bronc, bull riding, team roping, steer wrestling and barrel racing, with a Kick Off Concert that has drawn acts like Blake Shelton, Kid Rock, Aerosmith, Brad Paisley, Tim McGraw and, in 2026, Miranda Lambert
