RODEO ADMISSION (EVENT STARTS 7:30PM)
🐂 Wednesday, August 27th- Saturday Pro Rodeo Finals, August 30th
Canadian Professional Rodeo Association is excited to announce that the IPE & Stampede will not only continue to host the SMS Equipment Pro Tour Finale in 2025 but will return to an expanded full tournament Finale format. The event returns to a full tournament format, shifting from a regular tour stop to a multi-day, high-stakes Finale.
Bareback Riding, Saddle Bronc Riding & Bull Riding
In these adrenaline-pumping events, a contestant’s score depends equally on their performance and the animal’s. To earn a qualified ride, the cowboy must stay on for eight full seconds, using only one hand. Touching the animal, themselves, or their equipment with their free hand results in disqualification.
For Saddle Bronc and Bareback Riding, riders must “mark out” their horse—exiting the chute with their spurs set above the horse’s shoulders, keeping them there until the horse’s front feet touch the ground after the first jump. Failing to do so leads to disqualification.
Steer Wrestling, Team Roping, Tie-Down Roping, Barrel Racing & Steer Roping
Cowboys and cowgirls race against the clock to post the fastest time. In steer wrestling and roping events, calves and steers are given a head start, and contestants must wait for a barrier to release before pursuing. Breaking the barrier results in a 10-second penalty.
Sunday, August 31
The Professional Bull Riders (PBR) event brings the world’s top bull riders to the IPE for a high-intensity showdown. As the largest bull riding league in the world, PBR sanctions hundreds of events across the U.S., Canada, Brazil, and Australia. Get ready for a thrilling night of action as fearless cowboys take on powerful, rank bulls in an ultimate test of skill, strength, and grit.
