67th Annual Pikes Peak or Bust Rodeo
The Pikes Peak or Bust Rodeo originated in 1938 and is one of Colorado's most important rodeo events, now sanctioned by the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA). The rodeo features traditional rodeo events such as steer wrestling, bareback broncs, tiedown roping, bull riding, saddle broncs riding, team roping, wild horse racing, and WPRA women's barrel racing. As part of the PRCA circuit, contestants can qualify for the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo (WNFR) championship in Las Vegas. On July 7 a western parade celebrates the rodeo in downtown Colorado Springs, and on Saturday, July 14 a Chuck Wagon Cook-Off is held at the Norris-Penrose Event Center.
