Saint Paul, MN -- Cinch World’s Toughest Rodeo returns to Xcel Energy Center February 3rd and 4th. Rodeo fans can expect a trifecta of fun with action, entertainment and intense competition on the menu. Plan to witness a BATTLE TO THE FINISH as the world’s toughest cowboys are "in it to win it" in their mission to be crowned ProRodeo’s World Champion. 

Fans will experience the absolute best of the best in cowboy athletes in Saint Paul as competition heats up to qualify for the multi-million dollar National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas. Every dollar the cowboys win puts them one step closer to the crown, and top contenders from across the U.S. will be lining up to compete in Saint Paul. We are proud to be ProRodeo!

Expect edge-of-your-seat action, eight seconds at a time. Cinch World’s Toughest Rodeo will spotlight fan favorite events: Bull Riding, Saddle Bronc Riding and Bareback Riding including the thrilling winner-takes-all Showdown Round and Women’s Barrel Racing.

ProRodeo’s best in entertainment will also be featured in the 2023 edition of Cinch World’s Toughest Rodeo. Roger Mooney, National Finals Rodeo announcer and fan favorite, will return to call the action and generate rodeo excitement. Comedy barrelman JJ Harrison will keep fans on the edge of their seats and Loop Rawlins, award-winning Western entertainer extraordinaire, has worked coast-to-coast bringing the Wild West up close and personal.

Cinch World’s Toughest Rodeo has doubled up on pre-show fan fun as the rodeo opens at 6 p.m. each night for a free (with ticket) pre-show event "down on the dirt." Come early for pony rides, meet the cowboys, hop in the clown’s barrel, take a seat in the bucking chutes on our live photo bulls Sonny and Silver Dollar, or get up close and personal on a behind-the-chutes tour. 

Load up your family and friends and make memories to last a lifetime.
