Over 40 events took place over the weekend from open bull rides to saddle bronc, steer wrestling, barrel racing and more, with close to $25,000 in prize money up for grabs thanks to sponsors.
After many years, the Chillagoe Rodeo has become affiliated with the region’s leading bull riding authority – the ABCRA North Queensland Zone – and riders who competed in the bull rides were able to earn points towards the national title.
