2022 marks the 100th anniversary of the Annual Greeley Stampede. The event that was started to honor local potato farmers has changed a lot over the years. Still, one thing that has remained consistent – the celebration continues to bring the entire community together every summer to celebrate our nation’s independence and preserve our western heritage.  

This year’s event has something for everyone, from crowd favorites like rodeos, music, and the carnival to new events like hoverboard barrel racing, a whiskey & cigar tasting, and a LEGO building contest.  Along with the variety of family entertainment that the Stampede offers, we’re also excited to have started several new educational community programs to help engage our youth.  A full schedule of all the fun is included in this program and shared on our website. 

We want to thank all of our volunteers for putting in countless hours to make the Stampede what it is today. Volunteers truly power this event and we wouldn’t be able to do it without their passion and dedication.  

Finally, we also want to thank the sponsors and donors who invested more than $2.9 million to be a part of the community celebration. It is amazing to see the community come together for Colorado’s Largest Western Summer Celebration every summer. 

We look forward to you making memories at the 100th Annual Greeley Stampede June 23-July 4, 2022.
