Top USA Rodeos

The Grizzly Rose is proud to be hosting a show with Gary Allan who will also be playing at the ‘honorable mention’ rodeo below, which is the Douglas County Fair & Rodeo. Be sure to support this great local rodeo up in Castle Rock and see Gary Allan afterward.

Honorable Mention: Douglas County Fair & Rodeo

For those of us in Colorado the Douglas County Fair & Rodeo is a great event occurring late summer. With a variety of entertainment from the rodeo itself, to live music, for tons of activities for the whole family, it’s a great reason to travel out to Castle Rock, CO.

And on to the Top 10 Rodeos…

There’s nothing better than throwing on a good pair of boots and watching one of the most dangerous events around – the rodeo. Each year comes with a spectacular array of rodeo events you’d kick yourself in the rear for missing, but a very prominent question we get tends to be, “which ones are the best ones to see?” Well here’s a list of the top ten rodeos we feel are the best of the best; from singular rodeo events to full on jamborees, we guarantee you’ll have a good time no matter which of these you attend!

10. The Reno Rodeo

Saddle up and head to The Reno Rodeo for this 10 day event acclaimed as the Wildest, Richest Rodeo in the West!

Like most other rodeos this one features many events to keep the whole family involved – even if the main rodeo attractions aren’t up their alley. The featured Cowboy Church has you covered for some away-from-home Sunday worship should you so choose.

You can take a look at the full list of events at the website listed below; so see for yourself just how incredible The Reno Rodeo is year after year.

7. Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo

For those of us unlucky enough to have never attended the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, it’s quite possibly one of the best rodeos to take your family to in Texas.

6. Pendleton Round-Up

This is one rodeo designed to bring more of a Native American background to the audience.

Rest assured that the rodeo itself is amazing, but the addition of some light history is always fun to both see and hear. This is one rodeo event you’d definitely want to take the kids along to! For those that enjoy this true Midwestern feel, you can attend this year from September 14th through the 17th.

5. Weekley Brothers Davie Pro Rodeo

Finally, an event not being held in the Midwest makes it to our top ten list with the Davie Pro Rodeo in Davie, Florida. If you’re a true fan of rodeo then this is the one you want to see! While there are plenty of vendors with a great assortment of foods, there’s little more up the avenue of kids.

There is an upside though, rodeo events are held here throughout the year, so even if you miss one there’s still more right around the corner!
