Winnemucca's Wildest Weekend has something for everyone!
Rodeo
The 91st Annual Rodeo on Saturday, September 1 and Sunday, September 2, at 3:30 pm promises a lot more than 8 seconds of excitement. This year will feature more money, more cowboys and more action than one has a right to see! Come see why this is Nevada's oldest continuous rodeo.

Advance tickets are $8.00 for adults ($10.00 at the door) and $2.00 for children 6-12 ($4.00 at the door), and children 5 & under get in free.
Don't forget, this year the Rodeo will be held outside at the main arena.

Our 2012 Rodeo is sanctioned by the ICA (Idaho Cowboys Association), and the CCPRA (California Cowboys Pro Rodeo Association).

Tri-County Fair & Carnival - this fun event serves up a 4 day carnival, many different contests, competitions, displays, prizes, an ATV rodeo, and Ronald McDonald. Plus, lots of free family entertainment.

Western Art Roundup - the Roundup features artists, poets, craft people and inductees into the Buckaroo Hall of Fame, as well as demonstrations and buckaroo poetry readings.
