Days of '76 Rodeo & Parade

Days of ’76 Rodeo & Parade brings PRCA rodeo nights at the Days of ’76 Arena and two historic parades through downtown Deadwood. Come for rodeo action, horse-drawn units, and a Main Street parade route that runs past classic Deadwood sights. Many daytime rodeo week events are free, and the parade is a strong pick for families and anyone who wants a street-side view of Western tradition. Key Details Admission: Ticketed for rodeo performances; parade viewing is free. Tickets / Registration: Buy official rodeo tickets only through the Days of ’76 website or at the box office the week of the rodeo. Some scheduled daytime events list as free on the official schedule. Parking: Downtown parking is limited and fills fast.

Weather considerations: The parade runs on a highway and Main Street route and will stop traffic on Hwy 14A, with delays expected around early afternoon on parade days.
