Ancient City Pro Rodeo

Ancient City Farmstead offers its bucolic setting for three days of rodeo action, from Friday, March 20, through Sunday, March 22, 2026. The events start at 4:00 p.m. on Friday and Saturday and at 11:00 a.m. on Sunday. Enjoy festival attractions, such as line dancing, kids activities, food trucks, and axe-throwing, before the rodeo. The rodeo starts, and the dust flies from 7:30 to 9:45 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and from 2:00 to 5:00 p.m. on Sunday. During the pro rodeo, contestants compete in bareback riding, team roping, steer wrestling, saddle bronc riding, barrel racing, calf roping, and bull riding.

This family-friendly event offers a kids zone with a bounce house and games, live music, line dancing lessons, and the opportunity to show your moves on the dance floor. There's a market, several food trucks, and the chance to ride a mechanical bull.

This is a rain-or-shine event, held mostly outdoors, so bring appropriate clothing for the weather. All seating is general admission on bleachers. Lawn chairs are not permitted, so bring a blanket if you want to sit on the hillside.

Admission: $28.00 for adults, $18.00 for children older than three, and $23.00 for military with ID. VIP tickets are $115.00 and include entry into a VIP private party deck, fast entry with no line, free parking, and a complimentary meal from one of the food vendors. Children with VIP tickets may access the VIP area. Purchase tickets online or at the event.
