The Pendleton Round-Up is best known for its heart-pounding rodeo and the professional cowboys and cowgirls who compete in it, but there’s another event in the arena that’s changing the lives of its participants.
The Children’s Rodeo offers children with special needs the opportunity to be cowboys and cowgirls inside the famous Round-Up Arena. If you're attending this year's Children's Rodeo as a spectator, you will need a paid admission ticket to the regular Pendleton Round-Up rodeo at 1:15 PM.
This awesome event will happen Thursday, September 17, 2026 at 10:30 AM, Pendleton Round-Up Arena!
