Boddington Lion's Rodeo 2025

Event History

Started in 1977, the Boddington Lions Rodeo has become the highlight of the calendar for the town of Boddington. The Rodeo grounds were built by hand by many current members of the Lions Club and local townspeople. As part of the ABCRA National circuit, the Boddington Lions Rodeo is a full championship rodeo and the largest one-day rodeo in Australia, boasting prize money exceeding $40,000. The 2024 event saw the highest turnout ever, with overflow camping booking out in record time. Be sure to follow our social media for updates throughout the year on tickets, camping, entertainment, and more.
