Idaho's Oldest Rodeo - The War Bonnet Round Up, is back for its 114th year! The Round Up was originally started in 1911 by a group of local businessmen and then was later taken over by the Chamber of Commerce. Eventually, the American Legion Department of Idaho Post 56 nonprofit veteran’s organization took over the reins. In recent years, the City of Idaho Falls Parks and Recreation Department bought the Rodeo. Over the years, the rodeo has been held at various locations including Tautphaus Park, and is now held at Sandy Downs, a city-owned facility. Today, more than 500 cowboys and cowgirls compete each summer in front of more than 15,000 rodeo enthusiasts. The Legion grew the widely popular event into the show it is today and for that, we are forever grateful. The City of Idaho Falls and the Parks & Recreation Department runs this historic rodeo, and we are honored to have the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes of Fort Hall participating. From the beginning, the tribes provided the most colorful component of the rodeo, making the War Bonnet Round Up an important part of eastern Idaho’s culture and tradition. We are very passionate about maintaining and building upon this legacy. A PRCA sanctioned event, we aim to bring the best rodeo talent and animal athletes in to compete in a family-friendly atmosphere.
