The Countdown Is On For 2025 Ingham Sugar City Rodeo

Dust off your boots and grab your hat – the countdown is on! In less than three weeks, the Long Pocket Earthmoving Ingham Sugar City Rodeo will burst into action at the Ingham Showgrounds on Saturday, the 6th of September.

From the crack of dawn, gates will swing open at 8:00am, welcoming rodeo-goers to one of North Queensland’s most exciting days on the calendar. Whether you’re a rodeo regular or brand new to the sport, expect heart-pounding action as riders tackle more than 25 events. From junior and novice categories to professional showdowns, plus feature events and the crowd-favourite charity ride, the arena will be buzzing with thrills, spills, and plenty of cowboy grit.

Off the dirt, there’s just as much to enjoy. Stroll through bustling market stalls, tap your boots to live music, and refuel at mouth-watering food stands. With the event’s proud ABCRA affiliation and local stock contractors supplying top-notch animals, you can bet on high-quality competition all day long.

Since bucking out of the gates in 1995, the Ingham Sugar City Rodeo has grown into a must-attend celebration of the north’s rural heritage. Visitors not only get an action-packed day but also the perfect excuse to explore the Hinchinbrook region’s warm hospitality, great food, and stunning scenery.

So, mark your calendars, rally your mates, and get ready for an unforgettable day in the heart of Ingham. The countdown is on, and the rodeo is calling!
