If you’re craving a true Western adventure this summer, it doesn’t get more iconic than the Pikes Peak or Bust Rodeo—and your perfect home base is Colorado Springs KOA Holiday.
Held in the heart of Colorado Springs at the Norris Penrose Event Center, this legendary rodeo has been wowing crowds for generations. It’s more than just a show—it’s a full-on experience packed with heart-pounding action, Western culture, and family-friendly fun.
From July 14–18, 2026, you can catch the excitement of the NFR Open, where top rodeo talent from across the country competes in events like:

Stick around after the show for live music and dancing—it’s the perfect way to keep the energy going into the night.
What makes this event even more special? It’s all for a great cause. Since 1946, proceeds from the rodeo have supported local military members and their families, making your visit part of something meaningful.
Here’s the thing—this isn’t just a quick in-and-out event. With packed crowds, evening performances, and so much to see, you’ll want to turn your rodeo visit into a full-on getaway.
