PROFESSIONAL BULL RIDING

Get ready to experience one of Big Sky's most electrifying summer traditions – the Big Sky PBR! Deemed "Big Sky's Biggest Week," this isn't just any rodeo. It's an 11-time "Event of the Year" recipient, a true testament to its incredible atmosphere, voted on by PBR bull riders themselves at the PBR World Finals!

Each July, our mountain town transforms into the ultimate arena, drawing in top-tier professional bull riders from across the globe for three nights of high-octane action. What started as a one-night show in 2011 has blossomed into an epic, multi-day event, where the world's best riders take on the world's best bulls as part of the PBR's Challenger Series.

Big Sky PBR Bull Riding Event

Beyond the thrilling competition, the Big Sky PBR is a vibrant community celebration. You'll find live music, delicious food and drink, and a true sense of camaraderie. Plus, this event proudly raises funds throughout the week in support of local Big Sky nonprofits.

Tickets sell out quickly as it's one of the most highly anticipated events of the season, and in Montana, so plan ahead!

Don't just hear about it – come feel the roar and be a part of this iconic Big Sky tradition. It's an event that leaves you with a smile on your face and stories to tell. Find all the details, view the event schedule, purchase merch, and grab your tickets at the Big Sky PBR website.
