i wanted to give this event 1 star but the novelty forced me up to 2 stars…read more ABSOLUTE GENIUS!!!! the event organizer got people (me) to pay to run 1 minute in front of scared rodeo cows. a complete loss of 25 bucks. and to make it even more painful, not even a t-shirt! why? because they ran out of t-shirts. that means every runner at the 2pm and after would get a crappy red bandanna...worlds most expensive bandanna! and they ran out of safety pins to pin the numbers. there's a cvs right up the street ya'll. complete debacle of any organization. they didn't check ID's or vouchers. most people just sort of walked right in and many did the run without even paying (they were bragging about it). but why would they pay, when nobody really checked anything! lets go a step further..."no drinking in the corral"...sure, but get wasted before and proceed to harass the cowboys and the bulls during the run. we even saw two of the cowboys almost come to blows...they were yelling and swinging their lasso's at each other like they were about to start a fight with each other. ugh, what a shame. this could've been such a cool event. i loved the costumes and the band playing (although after the run, most people left until the next start time).

The city of Apache Junction recently purchased the rodeo grounds as this was previously BLM land…read more For years, only non-profit events could take place here due to the fact it was state land. With the purchase, I'm so excited to see improvements made & new events coming in! As well as seeing staples like the Lost Dutchman Days weekend complete with the rodeo. Such a beautiful view of the Superstition Mountain and lovely weather for outdoor events! Be sure to be on the lookout for events to come as the city expands the programming at the rodeo grounds. Exciting things to come!!!

Don't miss this event!

The venue is great for a rodeo. However, I felt that the $5 parking fee on the rodeo grounds was a…read morebit steep, especially considering the $20 entrance fee. The concert was fantastic, I especially enjoyed hearing Harry perform. I am a big fan of the rodeo, and I would definitely consider attending again, particularly if the event were held during cooler weather.

This is the largest rodeo in the Phoenix rural area. It was sold out on Saturday night and almost…read moresold out Friday night too. Sunday was pretty full but not packed. Then of course you have the live music and dancing at the end of the night. It's always a good time here. We brought the RV and hooked up so we could party all night and be close enough to turn in when we wanted. They have a restroom and bath house just in case yours is occupied or broken. And there's plenty of food and shopping centers just around the corner if you need it.

The absolute cutest thing I'd ever seen was the little tiny cowboys and girls riding these giant…read moresheep. They were all dressed up in their denim, and cowboy hats and boots. Awwww Then they had to be lifted up on a sheep, and hold on for dear life. They were so cute. We cheered for everyone. And not everyone won. But we jumped up and applauded every single little rider. It was just too adorable!

So much fun. It cost $15 per vehicle and that included parking and admission for all…read more Great for anyone involved or interested in livestock and some terrific youth events. Held annually at the Arizona State Fairgrounds, there were several food vendors and many more selling t-shirts, cowboy hats, equipment, etc. Inside one of the exhibit halls was a silent auction with many handcrafted items. The other buildings housed many different types and breeds of livestock. It was interesting to watch the adults and their kids clean, groom, and feed the animals. Often we were able to watch them go from stall to show in a short period of time. This was our second year attending the show and we cannot wait until next year.

I have been to this Rodeo several times over the years. If you are 21 to 49 this will be one of the…read morebest weekends of your life, even if you don't drink. ( There are plenty others to watch getting crazy.) Between the Rodeo itself and the Whiskey row you will have a fun time especially if you are single, but it is still a fun time with a date or significant other especially if you like to dance. Great place to meet someone and I don't mean Hook-up. If you are older or younger than the ages listed above you will still have a good time at an old fashioned community event like the Prescott Rodeo!

I did enjoy the fact that the seats were under shade, with giant swamp coolers. It also looks like…read morethey have upgraded the chutes and stables. However, we were not impressed with the show and it's participants. We were lucky to even see a participant earn a score in any category. If this is what they're investing their time and money into as their sport, these athletes should have displayed more talent and skill. I dunno, maybe we were there in a bad time/for a bad show... but even the commentator remarked a few times during our day there that many were "having bad luck".
