About Cheyenne Frontier Days: In the frontier west of a young United States, cowboys roamed the vast expanses of land as they tended cattle on the open prairie. After months out on the range, the cowboys returned to their ranches, sometimes partaking in friendly bucking horse competitions with other cowboys in the area. On September 23, 1897, organizers harnessed the spirit of these impromptu matches of cowboy skill, and the “Daddy of ‘em All®” was born. Since then, Cheyenne Frontier Days™ has been at the heart of the cowboy way of life. Through recessions, depressions, wars, natural disasters and every conceivable kind of weather, the “Daddy of ‘em All”® has been recognized as the greatest celebration of Western spirit the world has ever known. Each year during the last full week of July, the Magic City of the Plains brings together rodeo fans, country music lovers, Western enthusiasts and fun-seekers from all 50 states and 23 foreign countries on five continents. Get your roughstock served up full-throttle, non-stop and outdoors in the heart of the American West. Every afternoon features bull riding, saddle bronc, bareback, rookie saddle bronc, steer wrestling, team roping, tie-down roping, women’s barrel racing and the famous wild horse race. Jumbotron screens offer big, bright front row experience views of all the action! Cheyenne Frontier Days™ has been voted “PRCA Large Outdoor Rodeo of the Year” 16 times by rodeo cowboys and stock contractors. When the sun goes down on Cheyenne Frontier Days™ each night, the stars really do come out!
