Saddle up and start the Independence Day holiday weekend off in a big way at Cowboys Forever Rodeo in Eagle on July 3. Get ready for a night of big rodeo energy, western tradition, trick riders, and family fun under the Colorado sky. The evening will be packed with excitement, from bronc riding and barrel racing to crowd-favorite events like mutton bustin’ and calf scramble. It’s the perfect way to celebrate the holiday weekend with hometown pride, western spirit, and summer fun for all ages.
Come hungry — food will be available for purchase from The Cowboy’s Kitchen, Mountain Grillin, and The Full Belly BBQ.
Throughout the 2026 rodeo season, Cowboys Forever Foundation will honor and remember those we have lost to suicide. Please follow the link below if you would like your loved one to be included in this special tribute.
