High Country Stampede Rodeo

Professional CPRA rodeo action unfolds on Saturdays in Fraser, Colorado, just north of Winter Park. The High Country Stampede Rodeo operates from July 4 through August 15, 2026, drawing locals, front rangers, and international travelers to a schedule packed with specific themed nights. The calendar features Old West Dress Up Contests, Family Fun Night, Sponsor Appreciation with Country Western dancing, Cancer Awareness Night, and dedicated honors for Military and First Responders. The main performance begins at 7:00 pm, preceded by Junior Rodeo at 3:00 pm and Wild Horse BBQ from 4:00 to 9:00 pm. Attendees watch bull riding, team roping, barrel racing, mutton bustin’, and clown acts while enjoying ice cream from the on-site Ice Box shop. The venue is easily accessible from Winter Park via US40, turning left under the RR bridge and following the road to the arena. The organization’s motto, “The High Country Stampede Rodeo, where everyone has fun,” guides a summer tradition that emphasizes family entertainment and community celebration.
