Ute Stampede Rodeo

About the Stampede

  For the local community the Ute Stampede is a long held tradition. Beginning in 1934, this attraction has been a yearly tradition and boasts only being missed during times of great national crisis.  Its beginnings were humble, Dr. P.L. Jones its founder, insisted that there needed to be a celebration of the hard work of the community and at the same time celebrate the past inhabitants of this beautiful valley. His dream today continues. Crowds gather from our community and distant places. For three nights his dreams light up the Juab County Fairgrounds, filled with families making memories and having fun. 

  We invite you to join our beautiful city in this celebration to have fun, celebrate the hard working community and make some memories with our city.
