2025 Mount Isa Mines Rodeo

Mount Isa Mines Rodeo, proudly presented by AKUBRA.

Hold on to your hats and dust off those boots because the greatest show on dirt in the Mount Isa Mines Rodeo, featuring the Mount Isa Mines Indigenous Rodeo Championships, is BACK in 2025, and it’s back in community hands with bucking big news to share.

The Mount Isa Mines Rodeo isn’t just an event - it’s legendary. As the largest rodeo in the Southern Hemisphere and one of the biggest in the world, it’s where champions return to defend their titles, rising stars carve their names into history, and eight electrifying seconds can feel like an eternity.

For three adrenaline-fueled days, Mount Isa in Outback Queensland comes alive with the raw power of bull riding, saddle bronc, barrel racing, roping and more, as the world’s toughest cowboys and cowgirls battle for some of the most coveted buckles in rodeo. Set against the backdrop of red dirt and Outback pride, this is more than a competition—it’s a celebration of grit, glory, and the spirit of rodeo, and it’s where the region unites.
