Visiting The Oklahoma City Rodeo and Horse Show

There are few things more exciting and fun than a day spent at the state fair, especially for those with families. The Oklahoma State Fair has plenty to see and do, including the Oklahoma City rodeo and the Oklahoma horse show.

If you like horses and rodeos, you will want to grab a seat at the front, and you can enjoy such attractions as the Xtreme Bulls tour, as well as some of the best bull riding around. Other attractions include barrel racing and roping, as well as a miniature donkey show. One of the most popular events features the draft horses. These gentle and strong horses are huge and are capable of pulling heavy loads. If you have ever wondered what it might be like to work on a ranch, you will enjoy the ranch sorting part of the show, which features much of the work performed on the typical ranch. Teams of riders on horseback have the job of herding the cattle into their designated pens, something that is more difficult than you might imagine, although the skilled riders make it look easy. Try to purchase your tickets ahead of time as these events are all extremely popular.

A visit to the Oklahoma State Fair really does have something for everyone, from animals to some delicious food and wine. There is plenty to keep the kids amused, including the usual carnival rides and games, although they can also learn something too, including all about the the work and duties of a typical rancher.

This year’s event runs from September 15th to 25th and you can buy tickets at the door for $9 adults, and $5 for children. Visiting on opening day is a great bargain, as the admission price for everybody is just $2. You can buy a season pass for $25, if you plan to spend at least several days there.

The Oklahoma State Fair is a wonderful day out for all the family. Buy your tickets today to one of the premier events in the Midwest.
