Wickenburg, Arizona, a modern town with an abundant historical past is proud to welcome you to the Wickenburg Western Days Rodeo on February Saturday 13th & Sunday 14th.

Throw on your boots and dust off those cowboy hats because it’s time to hit the trail to Wickenburg, “where the west is still wild!”. A town that is known for its cowboys and culture, Wickenburg is proud to bring its western heritage to the forefront as it celebrates 2 days of ranching, rodeo, and gold mining history.

The National Senior Pro Rodeo Association (NSPRA) is proud to bring rodeo action to Wickenburg this February. NSPRA rodeo events include Bareback & Saddle Bronc, Barrel Racing, Bull Riding, Tie-Down Roping, Ribbon Roping, Steer Wrestling, Team Roping, and Ladies and Men’s Breakaway Roping.

You can expect to find some of the southwest’s best BBQ, bars, western merchandise vendors, concession stands, and tack vendors! Tickets for this event will be $15 for general admission, and kids five and younger are free. Please plan on paying $5 for parking as well. The town of Wickenburg is excited to be able to host a rodeo this year!

More about the National Senior Pro Rodeo Association

The National Senior Pro Rodeo Association (NSPRA) is the perfect solution for those who enjoy competing in rodeos but may have a few more years of wisdom under their belt. Just like many other associations, this one has a National Finals event as well as many others throughout the year. This organization is open to anybody who is turning age 40 or above during the calendar year. If you meet this requirement, you can fill out an application on their website and get started soon enough.

Every year, the National Senior Pro Rodeo Association holds rodeos that include nine sanctioned events:  Team Roping, Steer Wrestling, Saddle Bronc, Ribbon Roping, Ladies Breakaway Roping, Ladies Barrel Racing, Calf Roping, Bull Riding, and Bareback. Each event is broken into age groups. Timed events have age groups of 40-50, 50-60, and 60+. The rough stock has groups of 40-50 and 50+. The National Senior Pro Rodeo Association even has a 68+ age group for those who are interested in calf roping. Although the event is non-sanctioned, the association has a 70+ Men’s Breakaway.
