We are pleased to announce that the 38th Annual Arizona Gay Rodeo is scheduled for February 16-18, 2024 at the Corona Ranch and Rodeo Grounds – 7611 S 29th Avenue – Laveen (Phoenix) AZ 85339. The rodeo is a two-day event on Saturday and Sunday, and attendance each day averaging between 2,500 and 4,500.
A full weekend of activities is planned with a rodeo school on Friday, rodeo competition on Saturday and Sunday, dancing and entertainment Friday through Sunday, and culminating with the awards ceremony and party on Sunday evening.
Additionally, a complimentary “survivors’ brunch” is planned for Monday – February 19, 2024, and a rodeo volunteers party is planned for Friday – February 23, 2024. All sponsors are invited to these events.
Rodeo profits are distributed to various charitable organizations; and from the 2022 rodeo, AGRA gave a total of $70,000.00 to nine (9) different worthy organizations. In 2023 AGRA gave $100,000 to 14 local LGBTQ+ organizations. It is our hope to produce a financially successful 2024 rodeo so we can again give money to other organizations.
Sponsorships help enable us to have a successful and fun rodeo, and all sponsorships are greatly appreciated. All sponsors are announced throughout the rodeo, advertised in the arena, and also given the opportunity to present your respective award on Sunday evening.
