We love Heritage Ranch Rodeo and have been coming to this event for 7 years now. It is son nice to see 'rodeo' done the way we all do it on the ranch. In terms of the actual event and the competitors this is a GREAT event, however the new format is awful. The 2pm performance time really limits the people able to attend. We had to take time off work to attend the event this year which all of the other 8 people who regularly come with us were unable to do. I noticed a huge shift in the crowd dynamics this year. Instead of being a great mix of all ages this year we, as a young couple, we a minority which is very disappointing to see. To top everything off on the first day when there was actually an evening performance NOTHING else was open yet and of course in true Northlands fashion there were only 2 places open to eat in their food court and the kiosk in the arena RAN OUT OF FOOD AND COFFEE!!! Seriously COFFEE! This an event full of farmers! Instead of being able to attend the marketplace and cattle shows going on throughout the day we were sting watching the rodeo. Also only 2 days for the artisans to show their work and tucked away in a side hall yet again! Not cool! The rodeo was also shorter this year with dropping wild cow milking from the event list...yet another disappointment. Also disappointed that we cannot select specific seats when purchasing the 3 day package online like you can with single day tickets! I have to call in my order every year to sit where we want!
always good affordable entertainment. Only one problem, 1 evening performance and 2 afternoon ones! Most people work and can't get away for a 2 o'clock show!
A more realistic view of a working cowboy's daily duties. Stresses animal safety and humane treatment, teamwork and good horsemanship. Perhaps not as exciting as professional rodeo to new viewers until the nuances and intricacies are understood. A great show.
it was exciting and lots of fun!smaller venue than CFR, and different events too! Old fashioned rodeo at it's best! Affordable seats $15, awesome deal!
Love this show, fantastic price too. My favorite moment was when my son told his dad that one day he'd be down there on a horse, like, when he's six.
All working cowboys displaying skills they use everyday.Not hype or high pace and if bullriding is your favourite event and team roping is too slow, ranch rodeo probably isn't for you. If you appreciate working cowboys and horses, it's a great event.
What a great way to see all our Ranches compete and have so much fun doing it. It was a totally enjoyable event. There were two of us attending and my cousin lost her ticket last night - I was so impressed with Ticketmaster. They were able to replace the ticket with no further charge.
My girlfriend and I took our kids to two performances this year. Its fun and different! The mounted shooting competition was a big hit, and so were the stock dog finals. Our only complaint was the incredibly loud emcees. The older kids covered their ears often and we had to move the littlest further away. There were a lot of other families there with the same trouble.
Loved the dog/sheep penning Total experience of ranch life in a competition was informative and lots of fun. Will certainly go next year
Great ranch rodeo! Always entertaining and a good value.
We have gone every year since it started & will continue to go. As cattle producers we incorporate a lot of the events these cowboys do in our operation so it is exciting to watch them compete with other ranches in what would be an everyday job for them.
The ranch rodeo was well put on. I thought the contestants were definitely working cowboy and not "pros" . the seats were very affordable and very good viewing. Well done
This was a very entertaining event. It was fun to see events that occur on ranches.
We really felt like we were part of the action. The announcer did a great job of relating what was going on to the spectators. Our family has taken this show in every year since it came to Edmonton and we will be back next year too.
