PBR Unleash the Beast Glendale 2020 is right around the corner, coming up on March 21-22 at Gila River Arena in Glendale, Arizona. This event showcases top athletes from the Professional Bull Riders (PBR). and the best bulls in the industry! The valley of the sun looks forward to this sold-out event year after year and the upcoming PBR event is no different!

PBR Veteran rider Joao Ricardo Vieira, won the competition last year, going 3-for-3 over the weekend taking home a paycheck of $34,185. Jose Vitor Leme from Ribas do Rio Pardo, Brazil, finished second with a 2-for-3 performance, including the only 90-point ride of the weekend.

The top bull riders will continue to compete, ultimately vying for a spot in the PBR World Finals, held in Las Vegas. While PBR action is the main event during the hugely successful PBR Unleash the Beast Glendale 2020, it isn’t the only game in town. Other fun included a meet and greet with top PBR athletes held at the UltraStar Multi-tainment Center at Ak-Chin Circle, a memorial team roping event held in Wickenburg, and fan pre-parties held on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday in the Westgate entertainment district.

Pre-parties featured live music, vendors, and a beer garden, along with the chance for visitors to take photos with a live bull. The “Rodeo Days” event for younger kids happened Friday morning at Tanger Outlets Westgate. Kids got the opportunity to ride a pony, pet a goat, and do a Wild West craft. The entire weekend offered fun for rodeo fans of all ages!

In addition to hosting record crowds and showcasing thrilling bull riding action, the Ak-Chin Invitational also benefited the community. PBR graciously donated $2,000 to the Ak-Chin Indian Community during the weekend’s final awards ceremony.
