Five nights of rodeo, five different reasons to go — here's how to pick your night (or nights).

The 92nd Ogden Pioneer Days Rodeo runs Monday, July 20 through Friday, July 24 at Spencer Fox Eccles Pioneer Stadium, and every performance packs in bareback riding, saddle bronc, barrel racing, team roping, steer wrestling, bull riding, and a drone show to close each night. But each evening also carries its own theme:

🎓 Monday, July 20 — Family Night & Educators Appreciation. The first performance of the year, with a special hats-off to the education professionals who prepare our youth.

🚒 Tuesday, July 21 — Cowboy & Community Cares & First Responder Appreciation. A salute to first responders and healthcare professionals. Wear purple and consider donating to the Boys & Girls Club of Weber-Davis — there's a fundraising auction featuring a smoker donated by Smith & Edwards, an NFR package, and custom signed chaps.

🇺🇸 Wednesday, July 22 — Patriot Night & Military Appreciation. The stadium honors active military and veterans from every branch. Wear your red, white, and blue.

🤠 Thursday, July 23 — National Day of the American Cowboy. Cowboys and cowgirls from every Utah county are honored in the arena for preserving the Western way of life.

🎆 Friday, July 24 — Pioneer Day Celebration. The grand finale, on the very holiday that started it all back in 1934 — the ride of the summer on the last night of the rodeo.

The Ogden Arts Festival turns 20 this year — and it doesn't happen without volunteers.

Volunteers are needed Friday through Sunday, July 17–19 — the festival opens to the public at historic Union Station on Saturday and Sunday, and the team needs hands for everything from setup Friday to welcoming guests, supporting artists, and working behind the scenes all weekend. Whether you have a few hours or a full day to give, they'd love to have you.

Volunteers receive:

👕 An official volunteer T-shirt featuring this year's festival artwork by Jaroh

🍕 Food during your shift

🎟️ A behind-the-scenes experience at one of Ogden's favorite summer traditions

🤝 The chance to meet artists and make new friends while giving back

No experience needed — just bring your enthusiasm and they'll take care of the rest.
