MEDICINE HAT, AB – The annual spring rodeo in Medicine Hat is now being planned for the fall.

The Medicine Hat Exhibition & Stampede Rodeo Committee said today it will set new dates for the Broncs & Honky Tonks Spring Indoor Rodeo.

It was scheduled for April 9-11 this year.

“With the current restrictions placed on indoor gatherings by the Chief Medical Officer of Health, we will not be able to host the rodeo in a usual format,” reads a statement from the committee. “Rest assured, the Rodeo committee is working with Alberta Health Services to be able to hold a rodeo in the fall of 2021. We are hopeful for fall dates and will announce the new dates at a later time.”
