Parker Ranch is excited to announce the 59th Annual July 4th Rodeo and Horse Races on Tuesday, July 4, at the Parker Ranch Rodeo Arena in Waimea.
The rodeo celebrates the community and commemorates Waimea’s unique ranching way of life and culture. It is a long-standing tradition that promotes camaraderie and friendly competition among the various Hawaiʻi Island ranches. Paniolo (Hawaiian cowboys) will compete in various events, including horse races, team roping and more.
Gates open at 7 a.m. Those attending can enjoy a variety of crafts and food from Big Island vendors, as well as keiki activities such as a petting zoo and pony rides. Parker Ranch commemorative logo items will be conveniently available at the Paniolo Preservation Society booth. Rodeo action begins shortly after the 9 a.m. grand entry and continues until 1 p.m.
Visit Kamuela Hardwoods, the Paniolo Preservation Society or Waimea Butcher Shop to purchase tickets at a special price of $10. You can also purchase tickets online for $12 plus applicable fees and taxes. Tickets purchased at the gate will be $15.
No pets or alcohol will be allowed. Seating is limited and will be on a first come, first served basis. Rain or shine, the paniolo will ride!
