It’s Time for the Stetson Wright Invitational 2023

Written by

Get ready for some bull riding action in Beaver County! The 3rd Annual Stetson Wright Invitational is here and it’s happening on May 13, 2023, at the Beaver County Fairgrounds in Minersville, Utah. The event promises to showcase the best bull riders who will take on some of the toughest bulls in the southwest. The gates will open at 6:00 pm, and the competition will start at 8:00 pm. Thirty top bull riders will be competing for a grand prize of $30,000, thanks to Stetson Wright. Tickets are available for purchase on https://stetsonwright.yapsody.com/ at $25.00 per adult, and $20.00 per child. Don’t miss out on this unforgettable experience; buy your tickets today!

Last year’s Bull Riding Champion was Briggs Madsen who won the Stetson Wright Invitational with a 92-point ride in the Championship Round! Don’t forget about the mini bull riding competition as well. The winner of that event will go home from Beaver County with $1,000 in their pocket!

Where to Stay

Your best bet for this event is to stay in either Milford or Beaver, which is right off the highway. There are several inns and motels in the little towns around Minersville. The town itself is really just a little pass-through town, so don’t anticipate a whole lot being available right there in town. Buy your tickets for the event now and we will see you in Utah!
