Mount Isa Mines Rodeo - A Community Success Story.

In late 2024, a group of passionate locals came together to form the new Mount Isa Pro Rodeo Board, determined to keep our iconic rodeo alive and in community hands.

The success story that followed belongs to the whole community. Backed by locals, Mount Isa City Council, our valued sponsors and the Queensland Government through Tourism and Events Queensland, the Isa Rodeo continues to thrive.

This is your rodeo. Your community. Your legacy. A comeback story for the history books.

Rolling in over the hills to Mount Isa, seeing those lights, is something that gets the heart rate going of the competitors that have travelled Australia wide.

A win at Isa can make or break a season for these competitors and the reason we get the best athletes coming to town!

The comeback of Mount Isa Rodeo took a lot of hard work from the committee, backed by the unwavering support of the locals. It’s a testament to a community that rolls up its sleeves, gets behind its own and keeps a much loved tradition alive. @darryl_chong_ Head Protection Athlete has been integral to Isa Rodeo over the past 20 years.

An Isa Rodeo Highlight ~ words by our Charity Rodeo Queen Kylie Vonhoff
In May, I got back on a horse for the first time in more than 10 years. I was definitely nervous and out of practice, but with the help of some truly incredible people who gave their time, patience and knowledge to help me find my confidence again and, the most amazing horse to look after me I was able to work towards something I never imagined I would be doing just a few months later.

Being given the opportunity to carry a flag into the arena as part of the Mount Isa Rodeo Opening Ceremony was so incredibly special. Riding into that arena, surrounded by the atmosphere of the Rodeo and representing something that means so much to our community, is a feeling I don’t think I’ll ever be able to properly put into words. It is a memory I will hold onto forever.

But perhaps one of the most unexpected parts of the experience was discovering a love for horses and riding that I had forgotten was there. Getting back in the saddle reminded me just how much I had missed it, and I’m so grateful to every person who encouraged me, taught me, trusted me and helped me get to that moment.

Now I’m just working on convincing my husband that our family has room for one more… of the equine variety. 🤎 by @mountisarodeo
