The 2019 Lost Dutchman Days continues to be “the fun place to be for all ages.” This 55th annual event has 3 days of professional rodeo action brought to you by the Grand Canyon Professional Rodeo Association, and a carnival that features 30+ rides.  What would any event be without plenty of food and vendor booths to browse and they have over 100 setting up to keep the family busy.

The Lost Dutchman Days Rodeo Committee partners up with various youth-serving organizations and sponsors to put on this event that entertains the entire family. Profits from this event are donated back to these youth organizations and other youth-serving programs of the Apache Junction Community, ensuring the opportunity to reach the ultimate goal of “Putting Smiles on Kid’s Faces”.

Superstition Mountain Promotional Corporation and the Apache Junction Mounted Rangers are the moving forces behind this highly successful and popular hometown rodeo. With both organizations being completely made up of volunteers, this event has been growing and evolving since 1965 and 55 years later, they are proud to present their best year yet.
