Our flagship rodeo started in Arizona and has been going strong since 2011. One of the largest and most popular cultural and educational African-American events in Arizona, Arizona Black Rodeo has attracted more than 10,000 rodeo fans across a weekend of fun and exciting Western experiences designed for the entire family. In fact, USA Today named the Arizona event as a Top 10 rodeo during 2024.
Since 2020, Black Rodeo USA has been excited and grateful to bring this same level of Black rodeo experience to other states, such as Tennessee, Florida, Oklahoma and Nevada. With our partner rodeos, we reach fans in Oklahoma and Michigan. We look forward to spreading this cultural tradition across the country again for 2025 and years to come.
