The California Rodeo Salinas has a huge economic impact on local businesses, and also benefits local non-profits each year.
The competition began in 1911 and was originally known as the Wild West Show. One year later, 4,000 spectators watched as cowboys and cowgirls from the community attempted to outdo each others time while riding bucking broncos. By 1914, the annual event was renamed the California Rodeo. During the 1940s, celebrity western stars began attending the event. Brahma bull riding was also introduced into the competition. Since that time, the pageantry, the number of events and competitors have gradually increased.
The California Rodeo Salinas in Salinas, CA ranks in the top 20 rodeos presented in the United States. The event attracts more than 700 male and female western competitors from around the country. All compete in hopes of winning part of the approximately $400,000 in cash prizes along with the gold and silver Salinas belt buckle.
The fun begins long before the Salinas, CA PRCA events begin. On July 14, the carnival opens and rebel rocker Kid Rock performs. On the 15th, all have the chance to attend the Kiddie Kapers and the Colmo del Rodeo parades. July 20th events include a performance by Whiplash the Cowboy Monkey. The mutton busting and stick horse race competitions also begin. Additional events include daily freestyle bullfighting, horse parades and horse shows.
The sports complex has grandstand and box office tickets available for the Kid Rock concert and daily rodeo events. Tickets are available for the concert and the California Rodeo Salinas at the Salinas Sports Complex Box Office on:
