Top End Mustering Rodeo 31st July 2021
Kununurra Rodeo and Campdraft Associations, Top End Mustering Rodeo isn't far away! It’s a serious competition with big cash prizes and the chance to watch local cowboys try to ride the longest 8 seconds of their life on the spectacular saddle bronc, bull and bullock rides.
If you have never been to a rodeo, it is truly an amazing experience full of, as they say, ‘Big bulls, big cash prizes and big falls’! It’s a contest of awesome skill and bravery dating back to the 1800s and attracts competitors from all over the Kimberley and Northern Territory.
It’s also a wonderful glimpse into the lifestyle and characters that live in the Kimberley and many of the attendees are from the region, so it’s a great chance to meet and mingle with the locals, who are relaxed and having fun and generally in very good form.
It’s a great day for adults and families and in addition to the bull rides, there are numerous events including the spectacular saddle bronc, barrel racing and more. For kids, there is a barrel race event and also a poddy ride.
There is a fully licensed bar, live entertainment and various food outlets – no BYO alcohol is allowed.
Gates open 3.30pm and the night ends at midnight.
Under 5s do not require a ticket.
