By Donna Werking
Prescott Frontier Days®, Inc. – World’s Oldest Rodeo® is gearing up for its 137th year of thrilling rodeo action. Featuring an array of talented rodeo acts and performances brought together by top contractors nationwide, this event promises excellent family-friendly entertainment. In Prescott, Arizona, the rodeo spans seven consecutive days from July 1 to July 7, with two performances scheduled for Saturday, July 6.
The highlight of the 2024 specialty acts includes the Broken Spoke Clydesdales, making their annual journey from Winfield, Kansas. These majestic Clydesdales travel nationwide, participating in rodeos, fairs, exhibitions, and events throughout the year. Tomas Garcilazo, a third-generation Charro from Mexico City, showcases highly developed horsemanship and roping abilities. Barrelman Matt Tarr, immersed in rodeo and livestock from a young age, brings a natural fit to the arena with his lifelong passion for roping. Starting at the tender age of three, Matt’s journey led him to become a rodeo entertainer, guided by what he believes to be his true calling from God.
Prescott Frontier Days®, Inc. proudly presents its esteemed contracted team members. Hall of Fame rodeo announcer Randy Corley, a legend in professional rodeo, is widely respected and trusted. Co-announcer James Horcasitas, hailing from New Mexico, provides critical knowledge and upbeat commentary essential to any rodeo performance, creating a “High Voltage” rodeo experience. National bullfighter Beau Schueth, a Nebraska native, has claimed his position as a national champion. Quirt Hunt, one of Pro Rodeo’s Top Bullfighters, marks his 21st consecutive year with the Prescott rodeo.
