Program
Celebrate 50 years of rodeo tradition - all day long.
The festivities begin at 1:00 PM with our Junior Rodeo, followed by pre-rodeo entertainment from 3:00 PM. Then, at 6:30 PM, the Main Event takes centre stage - brought to life by the incredible McPhee Rodeo Company, who’ve been with us for most of our journey. Their world-class stock and expertise have helped make Merrijig Rodeo the iconic event it is today. Arrive early, soak up the atmosphere, and be part of a day steeped in High Country heritage.
