July 11-13, 2025
TAKE A CLOSER LOOK
Hosted in the scenic and historic Wood Mountain Regional Park, this is the story of Canada's oldest continuous Rodeo since 1890.
As early as 1890, the NWNP promoted the “Sports” to celebrate Dominion Day. They invited local ranchers and cowboys to participate. In the early years the action consisted of foot races, ball games and horse races. The sport of rodeo was evolving during this period and it became the natural event to put on at the Sports.
