Rodeo is a western tradition, and residents of Cave Creek have been enjoying local festivities with the Cave Creek Fiesta Days Rodeo since 1977.
This is a non-profit event that is designed to promote and celebrate the tradition of rodeo and the historic spirit of the west in grand fashion.

In fact, The Cave Creek Fiesta Days Rodeo is a 2014 Top 5 Finalist for the PRCA Small Rodeo of the Year Award!
Each year the event draws visitors from across the region for fun and festivities.
