A cool September evening in Fort Madison sets the stage for classic PRCA action—bucking chutes snapping open, timed runs coming down to fractions, and a crowd that’s as ready for the concert as it is for the competition. Whether you’ve followed it for years or you’re planning your first one, Tri-State Rodeo tickets put you inside a rodeo night that blends pro-level events with big-time country music.
This page covers everything you need — from understanding how Tri-State Rodeo works to finding the right tickets and knowing what to expect when you arrive.
Tri-State Rodeo is an annual PRCA professional rodeo held each September in Fort Madison, Iowa, at the Tri-State Rodeo Arena (2103 303rd Avenue). Known as a signature event in southeastern Iowa, it draws fans and competitors from across Iowa, Illinois, and Missouri—the “tri-state” region that gives the rodeo its name—while combining top-level competition with major touring country-music concerts and surrounding community festivities.
The event runs across multiple performances over several consecutive evenings, typically with rodeo action beginning in the evening (commonly 7:00 PM). Each performance features the standard slate of PRCA rodeo events, with contestants competing for go-round and aggregate results. Along with a contestant purse, Tri-State Rodeo also awards PRCA standings points that count toward season and regional rankings—making it an important stop on the regional professional rodeo calendar.
On the arena floor, you’ll see rough stock events—bareback riding, saddle bronc riding, and bull riding—judged on a 100-point system split between rider and animal, plus timed events like steer wrestling, team roping, tie-down roping, barrel racing, and more where every second matters. With an outdoor arena, grandstand seating, livestock chutes, and an adjoining area for concerts and vendor/festival activities, the atmosphere is part fall rodeo, part fair-style tradition. If you’re planning to attend Tri-State Rodeo, browsing tickets early is the smartest move.
Box Office Ticket Sales also carries tickets for other rodeo events and PRCA-sanctioned competition across the country. If you’re building a season of live rodeo trips—or comparing dates, venues, and seating options—browsing related events can help you find the right fit.
Tri-State Rodeo tickets typically range from around $20 to $60 for general and reserved rodeo seating to higher or more for premium/concert-inclusive packages, with premium packages running higher.
Several factors can affect what you’ll pay. Prices commonly move based on the concert headliner scheduled for a given night, whether you choose reserved seating versus general admission, how close your seats are to the arena floor, and which performance night you select. If you’re looking for value, general admission grandstand seating is often a strong starting point, while reserved and arena-front options are typically priced at a premium.
No hidden fees. At Box Office Ticket Sales, the price you see is the price you pay. All fees are shown before checkout — no surprise charges when you reach the final step.
