Saddle up for the Kenilworth Show & Rodeo

Saddle up and prepare for a rip-roaring time at the Kenilworth Show and Rodeo, an annual extravaganza lassoing hearts for over a century.

This family-friendly event, deeply rooted in the Kenilworth district’s rich history, celebrates the essence of the horse, rodeo, and country living.

From 16 September, the Kenilworth Showgrounds will burst to life with a jam-packed day of entertainment starting at 8am.

Whether you’re a seasoned rodeo enthusiast or a first-time attendee, this event guarantees thrills and spills that will leave you on the edge of your seat.

The showgrounds, nestled by the scenic Mary River, offer a rustic country atmosphere perfect for various activities.

Imagine the excitement as the National Rodeo Association takes centre stage, showcasing adrenaline-pumping events like bull rides, bronc rides, barrel races, roping, and steer wrestling. But the rodeo is just the tip of the cowboy hat!

Families will find an array of delights, from wood chopping to horse events, dog jumping to chainsaw post ripping – there’s no shortage of heart-pounding action. And let’s not forget the horticulture, cooking, craft, and sewing competitions that showcase the community’s diverse talents.

Whether you’re dusting off your Akubra or slipping into well-worn cowboy boots, this event promises a home experience like no other.

The Kenilworth Show and Rodeo isn’t just a one-day affair. It’s an opportunity to immerse yourself in a genuinely iconic celebration.

So mark your calendars, pack your camping gear, and head to the Kenilworth Showgrounds for a weekend of unforgettable rodeo magic set against Queensland’s stunning natural beauty. Don’t miss this wild ride.
