Saddle Up, West Texas: The 82nd Annual ABC Pro Rodeo Rides Into Levelland!

Break out your boots and dust off your hat, because rodeo season is officially back in West Texas! The 82nd Annual ABC Pro Rodeo is returning to the Mallet Event Center in Levelland from April 3rd through the 5th, and it's bringing a whole weekend of adrenaline-pumping action, family fun, and true Texas tradition!

Sanctioned by the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA), this year’s rodeo is shaping up to be one for the books. Expect world-class events like Steer Wrestling, Barrel Racing, Bull Riding, Mutton Bustin’, and the always-entertaining Sonic Bullfight!

Oh, and did I mention the livestock? Rodeo stock will be provided by none other than Beutler & Son Rodeo Co., one of the top names in the PRCA circuit. That means you’re in for some serious action with animals that know how to put on a show!

This year’s performances will feature some fan favorites including Greg Simas, Eli Sharkey, John Harrison, and Ryder Rich, with showtimes as follows:

• Thursday, April 3 at 7:30 p.m.

• Friday, April 4 at 7:30 p.m.

• Saturday, April 5 at 1:30 p.m. & 7:30 p.m.

Each night will also have its own special theme:

• Thursday: Inside Out Night supporting the Inside Out Foundation

• Friday: M&P Fueling American Hero Night

• Saturday: West Texas Chevy Night

Stick around after the Friday and Saturday night performances for rodeo dances, featuring live music from Bo Garza on Friday and the legendary Jody Nix on Saturday. Because what’s a West Texas rodeo without a two-step or two?
