MILL SPRING, N.C. – Due to the unprecedented impacts of Hurricane Helene across Western North Carolina and the greater Atlantic region, WCRA (World Champions Rodeo Alliance), PBR (Professional Bull Riders) and Tryon International have cancelled the 2024 Rodeo Carolina. Following the storm, the event had been rescheduled for October 30-November 2 in Mill Springs, North Carolina at the Tryon International Equestrian Center and Resort.

WCRA and its partners look forward to bringing Rodeo Carolina back to the region in Fall 2025.

In the wake of Hurricane Helene, Tryon International has been instrumental in the region’s recovery, currently serving as a staging area for FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency), a community food distribution basecamp, and a 10-acre North Carolina Emergency Management Field Hospital. First responders also occupy Tryon International’s lodging and facilities with an indefinite departure date.

All ticket purchasers will receive a refund from ETIX.com, Tryon International's ticketing partner. All refunds will be processed automatically and appear on your bank statement within 20 business days.

Athletes who have questions can contact WCRA at eventsecretary@wcrarodeo.com.

We appreciate the understanding of our fans, competitors, partners and staff, and our thoughts and best wishes are with everyone in the region affected by the storm.
