2021 Pendleton Round Up Tickets & Event Schedule

The Pendleton Round Up ranks among the biggest rodeos in the Pacific Northwest, and typically brings in more than 15,000 fans for each day of the competition. The Pendleton Round-Up is a highly regarded rodeo, but what makes it truly unique is that it is the only rodeo that is staged on grass. The typical dirt rodeo arena is replaced in Pendleton by a complete grass surface.

The Pendleton Round-Up takes place over four days, from Wednesday to Saturday, with the competition starting each day right after lunch. The events during the Pendelton Round-Up include Bareback Riding, Barrel Racing, Bull Riding, Saddle Bronc Riding, Steer Roping, Steer Wrestling, Team Roping, and Tie Down Roping. There are also some specialty events in Pendleton including the Indian Relay and Wild Cow Milking, as well as, plenty of Native American dancing. Each evening following the rodeo is the famous Happy Canyon Night Show. The Happy Canyon Night show requires a separate ticket from the Pendleton Round-Up.

Pendleton Round-Up Stadium

The most popular place to sit in Pendleton Round-Up Stadium are the seats that provide the best view of the Bucking Chutes. Those include the "Let'Er Buck" Zone on the East side of the stadium, which are immediately adjacent to the Bucking Chutes in-front of North Sections 1-5. The South Sections A-I are across from the Bucking Chutes and offer a straight-on view of the Timed Chutes which are on the West side of the arena. Majority of sections start with Row A and have 18-24 rows in that section. The exception are the South Sections (A-I) which have 5 rows of box seats before Row A. The capacity for the Pendleton Round-Up Stadium is approximately 17,000 rodeo fans.
