DAYTON, Ohio – For the ninth time in tour history, the PBR’s (Professional Bull Riders) Pendleton Whisky Velocity Tour heads to Dayton, Ohio, at Nutter Center for PBR Dayton March 21-22.
For two nights only, some of the best bull riders in the world will duel with some of the rankest bovine competitors bred to buck in a must-see showdown that is only coming to town once in 2025.
Tickets for the two-day event are available on Ticketmaster on Monday, November 4, at 10:00 a.m. ET and start at $15, taxes and fees not included.

In 2024, Daniel Keeping (Montague, Texas) took home the event buckle, going 2-for-3.
In Round 1, the Texan rocketed out of the chutes on Spotted Demon (3B Cattle Co) for 86 points.
After bucking off It’s Cherry (Halpain Bucking Bulls) in Round 2, Keeping knew he needed to make the 8 in the final round to take the lead.
The cowboy from the Lone Star State locked in and moved in perfect time with Kephart’s Solomon (G&H Cattle) for 86.5 points to catapult to the top of the podium.
The PBR Dayton Pendleton Whisky Velocity Tour stop is the 24th event of the season. In 2024, the Velocity Tour hosted more than 356,000 fans, setting 16 event attendance records, while selling out 20 event days.
The bull riding action inside the Nutter Center begins at 8:00 p.m. ET on Friday, March 21, and 7:00 p.m. ET on Saturday, March 22.
