The Medicine Hat Summer Pro Rodeo, a highlight of the Medicine Hat Exhibition & Stampede, is a recognized stop on the Canadian Professional Rodeo Tour, drawing top-tier cowboys and cowgirls to compete in classic rodeo events such as bareback riding, bull riding, and ladies barrel racing. As an integral part of the larger multi-day Stampede celebration, the rodeo plays a significant role in preserving and celebrating western culture and traditions within the Medicine Hat region.
