Ellensburg Rodeo Tickets

About Ellensburg Rodeo

The Ellensburg Rodeo is one of the most storied and prestigious professional rodeo events in the United States — an annual Labor Day weekend tradition held in Ellensburg, Washington, in the heart of the Kittitas Valley, and one of America's top 25 rodeos. Founded on September 13, 1923, by local businessmen, farmers, ranchers, and community-minded citizens motivated by a desire to celebrate the vanishing frontier way of life, the rodeo began with a $10,000 budget from the Kittitas County Commissioners for 18 acres adjacent to the fairgrounds; since the land cost $6,450, the balance was used to construct the arena and bleachers through an extraordinary community-wide volunteer effort. The first rodeo was so successful it became an annual event, held every Labor Day weekend since without interruption. The event is staged on the historic rodeo grounds at the base of Craig's Hill alongside the Kittitas County Fair, with the Yakama Indian Nation always an integral participant. Rooted in informal "Sunday Rodeos" near the town of Thorp, the event has grown into a world-class PRCA-sanctioned competition with over 600 contestants and prize money exceeding $700,000. The Ellensburg Rodeo Hall of Fame was established in 1997 to preserve the event's history; in 2020 the rodeo was inducted into the ProRodeo Hall of Fame. The centennial in 2023 welcomed nearly 800 contestants and tens of thousands of fans — a testament to one of the American West's most enduring traditions.
