The 2023 La Fiesta de los Vaqueros Tucson Rodeo is set to begin Saturday, Feb. 18; chairman Jose Calderon has all the details on this year's event.
Jon Gold Special to the Arizona Daily Star Roughly 24 hours before the start of the 98th La Fiesta de los Vaqueros Tucson Rodeo, chairman of the rodeo board Jose Calderon can barely be heard on his cell phone, it is so windy on the rodeo grounds.Come rain or shine, the rodeo will kick off on Saturday at 2 p.m., with gates opening at 11 a.m. and a Kids Rodeo starting at 12:30 p.m.
But while the committee listened to fans who were hoping for more than just buckles, bulls and broncs, don’t expect the Tucson Rodeo to become the Cheyenne Frontier Days anytime soon. In addition to enhanced entertainment options, the rodeo this year will introduce the Bunkhouse Beer Garden and “grazing” tickets.
“Tucson and San Antonio are right after the New Year, and cowboys want to get a big jump on the year,” Calderon said. “Tucson is a destination rodeo for them. But the only way it works is if you get the best stock contractor, and we feel that Bennie Beutler and Sons is the best out there.”
