Join Us at the Rodeo Saturdays at the Sundance Arena
If you are looking for something different to do on a Saturday night in Mercer County, add a rodeo to your plans. Sundance Arena brings classic Western competition to a heated indoor venue, so you can enjoy the show comfortably no matter what the weather is doing outside.
For a price that can rival a movie night, families can watch riders, ropers, and racers take on events that have been part of rodeo culture for generations. Tickets at the door are $20 for adults and $10 for children ages 3–12.
What You Will See at Sundance Arena
Each rodeo night features a mix of speed, skill, and grit. Sundance Arena lists fan-favorite events like:
Bull riding
Bronc riding
Breakaway roping
Barrel racing
Team roping
Mutton bustin’
If you have never been to a rodeo before, that variety is part of what makes the night easy to follow. Some events are all about the clock, like barrel racing. Others are judged on technique and control, like bronc riding. Between events, the pace stays moving, and there is always something coming up next.
A family night out, with kid-friendly moments built in
One of the best parts about Sundance Arena is that it is not only for longtime rodeo fans. Kids have their own chance to participate and be part of the night, with kids’ events starting at 7:00 PM before the main rodeo begins.
That setup makes it a solid option for families. Younger guests get something to look forward to early in the evening, and parents can still settle in for the full rodeo program.
