Ticket pre-sales are now open for the 2026 Manitoba Stampede and Exhibition in Morris, Manitoba, which will mark the 61st anniversary of the event from July 17 to July 19, 2026.
Organized by the Valley Agricultural Society, the event is Manitoba’s only professional rodeo. It typically attracts between 30,000 and 35,000 visitors over the three-day span. The rodeo is a sanctioned stop on the SMS Equipment Pro Rodeo Tour, which features the top eleven rodeos in the country.
Residents looking to attend can purchase day passes for $35 for adults ages 13 and older, and $25 for children ages 6 to 12. Children 5 and under are admitted for free. Weekend passes are available for $90 for adults and $60 for children, while a family pack featuring two adult and two child day passes costs $95. On Friday, July 17, organizers are hosting a Seniors Day, which includes a 10 percent discount for those aged 60 and older.
While the rodeo and chuckwagon events require tickets, the grounds themselves remain open to the public with free admission all weekend. Visitors to the site at 350 Main Street South can access the fair, beer gardens, vendors, and the midway without an entry fee. The event, which has been designated a Star Attraction by Travel Manitoba, also features the World Championship Pony Chuckwagon Races alongside the Manitoba Professional Chuckwagon and Chariot Association.
The Manitoba Stampede and Exhibition roots trace back to an agricultural fair formed in 1895. In 1964, the fair was combined with the professional rodeo to create the annual event known today. The festival was recently recognized as the 2025 Festival or Event of the Year by the Manitoba Country Music Association.
