The Dodge City Roundup Rodeo is celebrated for its prestige within the rodeo community. It’s earned nine-time PRCA Rodeo Committee of the Year honors and a place in the PRCA Pro Rodeo Hall of Fame (inducted 2012). Time Magazine recognized it as a '50 Authentic American Experience' in 2008, while USA Today’s 10Best named it the #1 Rodeo in North America in 2018. Dubbed the richest rodeo in Kansas by contestant payout in recent years, the event features Xtreme Bulls, high-stakes roping, barrel racing, and traditional rodeo night shows across multiple days, with total payouts rivaling major national events. The 2025 edition runs July 29–August 3, featuring Xtreme Bulls, PRCA Rodeo nights, and a Championship Finals Night at the Dodge City Roundup Rodeo Grounds (with Tough Enough to Wear Pink on Aug 2). Note: one performance was canceled in 2025 due to unsafe grounds, but the event remains a premiere stop for competitors and fans alike.
