Dust off those cowboy boots, Salt Lake City! The adrenaline-pumping action of Professional Bull Riding (PBR) is charging back to the Delta Center for a another year, and I, for one, am ready to join the thrill-seeking crowd for what’s sure to be one wild weekend. Clear your calendars for February 7-8, 2025 – it’s time to witness the most heart-pounding moments in sports up close as the best bull riders in the world take on the fiercest animal athletes. With last year’s sold-out event, this season promises to be even bigger and better, so grab those tickets while they’re hot!

The PBR Unleash The Beast series isn’t just any bull riding event. This is the tour for serious contenders, where world-ranking points and a shot at the 2025 World Finals in Texas are on the line. Each bull rider, from rising talents to seasoned pros, is ready to go all out to conquer some of the most notorious bulls on the circuit. And don’t be fooled – this isn’t just any rodeo. These rides are a test of skill, strength, and pure determination as the riders battle bulls with names as intimidating as their reputations.

Last year, local favorites Kyler Oliver from Roy and Keyshawn Whitehorse from McCracken Spring brought Utah fans to their feet with breathtaking rides and gritty determination. Both managed to finish strong among a lineup of powerhouse competitors, with Koltin Hevalow from Missouri taking the 2024 Salt Lake City crown. This year, these athletes, along with the top riders of the season, will be back in the saddle, ready to go head-to-head against the “beasts” for victory.

The PBR experience at the Delta Center isn’t just for the die-hard bull riding fans – it’s for anyone who loves an edge-of-your-seat event. Last year when I went, I didn’t think it would really be my thing, but, I absolutely loved it and can’t wait to go back! With ticket prices ranging from $20 to $105, this is an affordable, thrilling night out for families, friends, or anyone looking to experience an iconic American sport. Might I add, tickets to the event would be great gift to give the family this Christmas. The Delta Center’s incredible atmosphere amps up the excitement, with every bull-buck and rider hold creating a pulse that ripples through the crowd. Trust me, if you’ve got kids who think they’re “too cool” for rodeos, one glimpse of this heart-stopping event, and they’ll be hooked.

For those who want to take it up a notch, PBR Elite Seats are available, offering perks like premium views, personal on-site concierge services, and other VIP experiences. With three tiers to choose from, you’ll have a close-up of every thrilling moment, plus an exclusive glimpse behind the scenes. Elite tickets are limited, so if you’re looking to go all in on this year’s PBR experience, I’d snag them ASAP!

As a mom and adventure-seeker myself, I know that finding events to keep everyone in the family entertained can be a challenge. But PBR Unleash The Beast is the perfect combination of action, competition, and spectacle. This is so much more than just a sporting event – it’s a story of courage, grit, and the incredible bond between riders and their animals. Each ride, each buck, each moment keeps you on the edge of your seat, cheering, wincing, and feeling every ounce of the rider’s determination and resilience. There’s truly nothing like it.

Plus, with Salt Lake City as a key stop on the Unleash The Beast tour, you know it’s going to be one of the best events in town, bringing fans from all over the region and creating an unforgettable atmosphere in our own backyard.

Tickets are available now, and based on last year’s crowd, they’re bound to sell out fast. You can secure your seats at the Delta Center Box Office or online through PBR.com, Deltacenter.com, or SeatGeek.com. Whether you’re going for general admission or splurging on the Elite Seats, getting in on this event is an absolute must.

PBR Unleash The Beast is more than just a bull-riding event – it’s a rush of emotion, heart, and spirit that showcases the best of what it means to push past fear and embrace courage. Powerful bulls and their fearless riders at the event are designed to remind us all that life is meant to be lived – sometimes with a bit of a wild ride!

Gather your friends, bring the family, and prepare for a night of thrills, cheers, and unforgettable memories. See you there, Salt Lake City! And don’t forget, February 7-8, 2025, the Delta Center is the place to be for the PBR event of the season!
