About the
Granby Rodeo
Rodeo has been a mainstay in Granby since 1943. We have been at our current location since 1969.
Flying Heels Rodeo, with our “flying Heels” of the bucking horse represents not just rodeo, but also the heels of cowboys and cowgirls flying over these many years. From tiny heels and 4-H, ropers and fast riding barrel racers, to the rough stock riders’ heels flying high as they buck off.
We are so happy to have you along for the ride. Saddle up with us for the longest running rodeo series in the county with tough competitors of all ages entertaining you.
You can always count on the standard rodeo events and Mutton Bustin’, as well as one-of-a-kind special acts! On select dates one or more of the following acts are on the schedule: Flintstone Gravel Belgian Team/Hitch, Shockwave's Trick and Fancy Riding Team, the famous Westernaires from Golden, CO, the unique Motorcycle Barrel Race that we started in the 1980’s, Mounted Shooting, Mini Bronc’s, and many other surprises!
Pull your boots on and come join us every Saturday night June and July plus the 3rd, 4th and 5th of July.
