Pendleton Round Up

Billed as the USA’s best rodeo, the 113-year old Pendleton Round-Up includes parades, a real cowboy breakfast, music, shopping and the spectacular Tribal Ceremonial Dance. People also come in droves for the featured attraction: the legendary old-fashioned rodeo with its high-flying, bone-crunching events like bull riding, steer wrestling and bronco busting. As the old cowboy proverb says, “There never was a horse that couldn’t be rode; never was a cowboy who couldn’t be throwed.” After visiting the museum at Tamastslikt Cultural Institute you will understand why Pendleton is known as The Real West.
