Having the best bulls and bull riders at Colorado State University in Fort Collins for the Professional Bull Riders “Last Cowboy Standing” event this year was a treat for rodeo fans all over Colorado, but many wondered if bull riding was popular enough for two nights in a football stadium…the answer to that question turned out to be a resounding, “yes, it is!” Now the PBR will be back with more nights in 2026.

CSU has signed an agreement to bring the PBR back to Canvas Stadium in 2026, and now will they bring back the rodeo and concert series event, but the event will expand from two days to three.

The 2025 event was only slated for two nights, taking place on Monday, July 21, and Tuesday, July 22. In 2026, the event is scheduled for Canvas Stadium on July 10, 11 and 12.

There’s no word yet on who the musical acts will be in 2026.
