Poly Royal Rodeo Tickets

Poly Royal Rodeo stands as the largest college rodeo west of the Mississippi, a signature event of the Cal Poly Rodeo program that draws thousands of spectators each year. Known for its competitive events and community spirit, Poly Royal blends athletic prowess with student-driven promotions and NIL partnerships that broaden its reach beyond the arena.

In 2025, Poly Royal Rodeo celebrated its 83rd edition, running April 9–12 at the Cotton Rosser Rodeo Complex on the Cal Poly campus, with an additional performance night added to accommodate demand. The four-night event typically features barrel racing, team roping, breakaway roping, tie-down roping, saddle bronc riding, bareback riding, and bull riding, offering thrills for rodeo fans of all ages. Beginning in 2026, the event is planned to relocate to Alex G. Spanos Stadium (April 9–11, 2026) with expanded seating to welcome even more spectators.

Poly Royal Rodeo is more than just a competition; it’s a showcase of Cal Poly’s rodeo program, student-athlete leadership, and vibrant NIL-driven promotions, including partnerships highlighted by programs like Boot Barn.
