The Great Southland Stampede Rodeo

The Great Southland Stampede Rodeo Rooted in tradition, committed to excellence. The UGA Block and Bridle Club is hosting a new Great Southland Stampede Rodeo on April 16-18, 2020.

The gates open at 6pm and the show starts at 8pm. The Great Southland Stampede Rodeo will be held in the UGA Livestock Instructional Arena located at 2600 S Milledge Ave Athens, GA

Rodeo contests are divided into two categories: rough stock events that are scored by a judge (bareback bronc riding, saddle bronc riding, and bull riding), and speed events (barrel racing, steer wrestling, breakaway

roping, team roping, and calf roping). Contestant entry permitting, each event will be held every night at the Great Southland Stampede Rodeo. Food and drink vendors will be present on site. Please no outside food unless there is an allergy issue. Non-food vendors will be present as well, with items ranging from boots and hats to jewelry and other items. There will be a "Kids Zone" with activities such as face painting, petting zoo, pony rides, photo booth, roping dummies, and corn hole.

Meet our 2026 Rodeo Chairman — Sam Lovvorn!!

“The Great Southland Stampede Rodeo is a true testament to how an entire community can come together to support three nights of rodeo fun. To the fans who cheer on our cowboys and cowgirls, to the sponsors who provide the generous support that allows us to continue such a deep rooted tradition, we could not do this without you… and I mean that wholeheartedly. You are the lifeline of this rodeo! It’s important for you to know that I did not do this by myself. Alongside my Co-chairman Grace and I, there are 11 other committee chairmen who bring this rodeo to life. The dedication, time, and effort these chairmen have given this rodeo cannot go unnoticed, and I am incredibly thankful to have such a great team. See you at the rodeo!” - Sam Lovvorn
