The dust will fly at the Silver Spurs Arena as the 154th Silver Spurs Rodeo stampedes into Kissimmee on February 20th. With seven traditional events, including bull riding and barrel racing, the rodeo, dubbed the largest east of the Mississippi, is gearing up for its annual display of rodeo staples, courtesy of the Silver Spurs Riding Club's decades of tradition.
This year's rodeo has a fresh twist, focusing on community engagement, particularly with younger generations, as it offers Osceola County students free admission on Thursday, according to Positively Osceola. This initiative gives families a budget-friendly opportunity to saddle up and immerse themselves in local heritage for $20 for adult tickets that evening.
The Silver Spurs Riding Club has matriculated through generations, with this year's "Big Boss," Randy Booth, succeeding a lineage of family members who have previously held the role. Booth's appointment continues a long-held tradition of leading the rodeo’s philanthropic efforts—an aspect as intrinsic to the event as the dust-kicking action itself. Spectators can embrace the spirit of the rodeo starting from February 20-23, ClickOrlando reported.
Attendees can ramp up their rodeo week with the Annual Silver Spurs Rodeo Parade on February 15th, followed by the high-stakes 14th Annual Monster Bulls event later that evening, poised to showcase some serious bull riding showdowns.
