The Great Western Rodeo, a yearly event held by the Great Western Football and Netball Club, has become a premier must-attend event in Victoria.
With riders from Australia and rodeo lovers from all over the world, it is little wonder that the event is a popular attraction in Victoria.

With live entertainment from 3pm onwards, and plenty of onsite food and beverage options, it’s a fun day out for the whole family to enjoy. Plus, a live band kicks off once the rodeo action concludes too, meaning you can dance the night away under the stars.
Free camping is available for those wanting to stay the night. Camping positions are served on a ‘first in, best dressed’ basis, which means there are no allocated spots or bookings required. They have added two FOC camping tickets to aid our operational requirements and ensure appropriate safety parameters are in place. If you plan on staying with us at the reserve, it would be greatly appreciated if you could add a camping ticket to your order to help us coordinate this area.
A recovery breakfast will also be available from 7am on Saturday morning with bacon and eggs to get your day started. You’re more than welcome to camp at the reserve for the remainder of the long weekend too, however you will need to pay for subsequent nights ($15 per night for no power, $20 per night for power). The onsite caretakers will come around to collect this from you directly.
This is a strictly no-BYO event, with a family-friendly enclosure available. Please leave your doggo friends at home, as they are not permitted inside the official event grounds.
Do you no what time the rodeo starts yet? Is it a day time or afternoon event? Thanks.
Hi Vicky,
Thanks for your question, I have just updated the page.
The rodeo is a day/twilight event which will run between 12pm – 8pm (gates open at 10am).
Regards,
Jess
Are we allowed to bring soft drinks
Hi Ian,
The organisers only specify that BYO alcohol is not permitted. So, as soft drinks aren’t mentioned, don’t see any reason why you couldn’t bring them in.
Have a great time at the Great Western Rodeo!
Jess
