Arcadia All-Florida Championship Rodeo

The oldest rodeo in the state of Florida, celebrating 84 years of rodeo tradition.  The Arcadia All-Florida Championship Rodeo is a non-profit organization that was established in 1952 by the Arcadia Rodeo Association, which evolved from a group of American Legion Members who held the first rodeo in 1929. It is the oldest rodeo organization in the state of Florida, and benefits all of Arcadia and DeSoto County. The Arcadia All-Florida Championship Rodeo Association is made up of members of the local community. These members volunteer their time and energy to make each of the events enjoyable for all. We want to say thank you to each of these members for their devotion to the Association and the community as a whole.
