The rodeo is coming to town

The rodeo is coming to the Dodge County Fairgrounds in Beaver Dam on Saturday, June 27.

Whether you are a lifelong rodeo fan or looking for an unforgettable night out with the family, this year’s lineup promises edge-of-your-seat excitement from start to finish. Produced by the legendary Rice Rodeo Company, this event is fully sanctioned by the International Professional Rodeo Association and affiliated with the World Champion Rodeo Alliance. Top-tier riders will be putting it all on the line.

The rodeo isn't just for the grown-ups. Bring the little cowboys and cowgirls along for a full night of family-friendly entertainment. 

The three main events include professional bull riding, bronc riding, and barrel racing. 

Watch elite cowgirls and their highly trained horses sprint into the arena, tearing around a cloverleaf pattern of barrels at breakneck speeds. The tight turns and explosive acceleration provides some exciting entertainment.

Gates open at 5 p.m. and the rodeo runs from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.
