The 63rd Annual Rodeo de Santa Fe is set for June 20-23th, 2012. The Annual Rodeo de Santa Fe is sanctioned by the PRCA (Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association). Because this is a PRCA sanctioned rodeo and the fact this is a popular small town rodeo, some of the top names from the world of Professional Rodeo are scheduled to compete in the 2012 Rodeo De Santa Fe including World Champion cowboys Taos Muncy, Trevor Brazile and JW Harris. This event is a SantaFe.com featured event on the company’s event calendar.

The Rodeo began in 1949 when Roy Butler, Austin “slim” Green, Gene Petchesky, Paul Ragle, Paul Rutledge and few others had a dream and determination to organize a PRO rodeo in Santa Fe. This dream exceeded their expectations and became what is today, one of the top 60 Pro rodeos in the nation. In 2010 the Rodeo De Santa Fe had 540 contestants.
