Coming back to Cave Creek, Arizona is the highly-anticipated Cave Creek Rodeo Days 2021! This event takes place May 28-30, 2021 so pull your boots on, it’s time to enjoy, “A Western Tradition since 1977!”

Located at the Cave Creek Memorial Arena, the Cave Creek Rodeo Days is a PRCA sanctioned rodeo that has made quite the impact in its community since its inauguration in 1977. Consisting entirely of volunteers, the non-profit Cave Creek Rodeo Days, Inc. has been the key to the great praise and success the rodeo receives each year. With goals to preserve the past, present, and future of Cave Creek’s western heritage, the Cave Creek Rodeo Days rodeo has created an avenue for philanthropy in the community. With thousands of visitors each year and help from volunteers, patrons, sponsors, and the community of Cave Creek, the Cave Creek Rodeo Days Organization has had the ability to donate over $25,000 in the last two years alone. From breast cancer awareness organizations, domestic violence awareness organizations, to veteran aid, many charitable donations have become a reality thanks to this annual rodeo extravaganza.

As stated on the Cave Creek Rodeo Days website,

“We support scholarship avenues, exposing our western heritage to youth and continue the tradition of giving back to the local community and state charitable causes, through the wonderful exciting sport of a PRCA Professional Rodeo.”

The celebration kicks off on Saturday, May 25th with the Cave Creek Rodeo Days Golf Tournament hosted at the Rancho Manana Golf Club followed up by the awards ceremony at Harold’s Corral. The annual Cave Creek Rodeo Days Golf Tournament is a shotgun start – four man scramble format. Come hit a few balls, have a refreshment or two and get ready for golf the Cowboy Way! Special prizes, Tee box challenges, Hole-in-One, Closest-to-Pin, and Longest Drive to mention a few! A Silent Auction and Banquet with lots of awards. Register today as a four-person team. The registration deadline is May 21, 2021.
