Welcome to Fall Fest 2026 at the Burford Agricultural Society Fairgrounds! Grab your boots, tip your hat, and get ready to learn a skill straight from the open range at a rootin’, tootin’ night of rope-spinnin’ fun.
Join us on Thursday, September 24th from 2:00pm – 4:00pm in the Large Horse Arena for Lasso Lessons led by a real-deal PRB cowboy who knows his way around a rope better than most folks know their own driveway.
Whether you’re a seasoned ranch-hand or a total greenhorn who’s never swung a loop in your life, this here roundup is open to all. Participation is optional — but mighty encouraged! You’ll learn the basics of rope handling, how to spin a proper loop, and maybe even rope yourself some braggin’ rights back at camp 🤠 There may even be come prizes for the cowboy or cowgirl with the best accuracy - bring on the belt buckles!
Watch live demos from the pros, then step up and give it a whirl yourself. From beginner tips to crowd-pleasin’ trick ropin’, there’s somethin’ for every cowpoke ready to try their hand.
All are welcome at this shindig. The event’s OUTDOORS, so dress for whatever weather rides into town 🌾
