The 74th Tri-State Rodeo kicks off on Saturday, September 3, 2022, with 4 days of pre-rodeo activities that lead to 4 huge nights of rodeo and music inside the C.E. “Eddie” Richards Arena.

Musical performances on Jack Daniel’s Main Stage by Aaron Watson, Flo Rida, Jordan Davis, and Trace Adkins, as well as after-Party shows in the Bud Light Stockyard by NATU Band and Devin Clemons Band.

There will be food and drink vendors, retail vendors, and many interactive activities as well!
