The Cobb County Pro Rodeo rides into town this April, bringing two nights of nonstop excitement presented by the Southern Rodeo Company. Set against the backdrop of a covered arena at Jim Miller Park, fans can look forward to classic rodeo action including bull riding, roping, barrel racing, and more. The energy kicks up at 7:30 pm sharp, but gates open early so guests can grab a good seat and enjoy the pre-rodeo buzz.
Rodeo nights in Cobb County are all about the thrill of the arena, but the fun doesn’t stop there. Food vendors and food trucks will be serving up plenty of options to keep guests fueled for the action. A variety of vendors will also be on-site, making it easy to browse, snack, and shop before the show kicks off.
Each evening runs about three hours, giving fans plenty of time to cheer on the competitors and experience the high-energy performances. With free parking, ticket options online or at the gate, and free admission for the littlest cowboys and cowgirls ages four and under, this event is a family-friendly way to spend a spring evening.
So dust off your boots and hats and get ready for two nights of adrenaline-pumping fun at one of Cobb County’s most exciting annual events.

Hi David,
The Cobb County Classic Rodeo is an event by H&W Rodeo Productions LLC. For more information, call Johnny Woodward at (404) 625-4890 or Larry Haney at (770) 655-2918
How do we buy tickets in advance, is there a website?
Hi Kim,
Advance tickets for the June 18 & 19, 2010 rodeo will be available at Carl Black on Barret Pkwy in Kennesaw and Johnny’s BBQ in Powder Springs starting this Thursday.
If I wanted to compete in the barrel racing how would I go about to register?
Hi Britney,
For participation information, please call Johnny Woodward at (404) 625-4890 or Larry Haney at (770) 655-2918.
I see that the classic rodeo starts at 8pm each night. Is there anything going on earlier in the day to come for?
Hi Jenni,
Past events have included a petting zoo, a mechanical bull, and a kids bungee jump. There were also vendors selling western gear, food and drinks, beef jerky, and more. These vendors will likely change over time, but if you get there about an hour early you can likely find some type of entertainment, or perhaps you could just get there early to grab a front row seat for the rodeo.
How long does the rodeo last?
Hi Rex,
The rodeo lasts about two hours – 8pm to 10pm.
Hi,
When and where are the next shows ?
Hi Morgane,
The Cobb Classic Rodeo is typically held in June, August and October, so the next show will be in June of 2011.
Can we bring cameras in?
Hi John,
At IPRA events like this, all cameras and video must be approved in advance by the producers. For more information about the camera policy, please call (770) 684-7277.
Are dogs allowed at the rodeo?
Our guess is that regular dogs are not permitted, however service dogs are probably ok. This would be a question for the event organizers – you can reach them at (770) 684-7277.
Heading Stateside for a great RV trip starting in Marietta on15th. What better way to start a 5 week trip than your Rodeo. Do we need to get there early to get a great seat? This is our first ever Rodeo… Can’t wait!
Hi Nick,
Great to hear that you are planning to attend. Based on our experience with past rodeos, you can get a great seat if you arrive 30 minutes to 1 hour in advance. Hope you enjoy the show!
hey id like to know how i could get into bull riding im very interested and im sure i could do good……im just struggling finding somewhere in GEORGIA that will give me a chance to hop on a bull and make a career out of it….so if anyone is willing to give me a chance im not scared to hop on one PLEASE REPLY
Thanks to all who made 3 of us from the UK really welcome at our first ever Rodeo. It was a great start to a fantastic tour of the South of the USA. Heading home in 3 days but hope we will be back to see more amazing skills. Especially impressed with the riding skills of the girls!
Thanks again and you have new fans across the Atlantic!
Who was taking professional pictures Saturday night (25th) ? I’d like to purchase some!
Hi I was wandering about information to become a vendor..
Hi there. We are looking to go to the rodeo show Saturday evening.. We are a family of 5 driving from NJ and I was wondering if should be concerned about the event selling out? I can pre-order tickets through someone to make sure we are definitely in as we are making a long trip down there? Thnaks :]
Enjoyed the rodeo but the clown’s jokes were either x-rated or blasphemous. I was truly offended and embarrassed. There were so many children there!
Will this be held indoors or outdoors…wondering how to dress for the weather.
Hi Carolyn,
It is an outdoor arena with a roof, so you will stay dry if it rains but it is not climate controlled.
How do I get registered to participate in the rodeo ?
How to get my son signed up for the mutton busting, this weekend at Jim Miller Park?
I went to the rodeo classic last night for my birthday and it was AWESOME!!!! The ladies were tough on those horses and represented. Girl power lol! Seeing the little kids riding was pretty cool too. Of course its always awesome to see the handsome cowboys. I can’t wait until the next one 🙂
