PALM DESERT, Cali. - When the Professional Bull Riders (PBR) returns to Acrisure Arena in Greater Palm Springs, California, this March, fans can once again expect the electrifying energy and edge-of-your-seat action that has made the world’s top bull riding organization’s annual visit a must-see fan favorite.
The top bull riders in the sport will set their sights on Greater Palm Springs, battling it out for the crucial Velocity Global points on the line at the Pendleton Whisky Velocity Tour (PWVT) PBR Greater Palm Springs, March 20-21, 2026, at Acrisure Arena. The popular Greater Palm Springs stop will be the 23rd event of the 26-event PWVT regular season.
Velocity Global points contribute to the Velocity Global Standings and determine which PBR riders are added to the Unleash the Beast tour throughout the season in addition to qualifications for the PBR World Finals in May 2026.
In 2025 when the PBR Unleash the Beast tour visited Greater Palm Springs, Dalton Kasel (Muleshoe, Texas) delivered a perfect 3-for-3 weekend to seal the deal as the 2025 PBR Palm Springs Champion and went on to have a red-hot season finishing at No. 2 in the world standings.
The two-day event will see the rankest bulls in the sport and the league’s top bull riders – all determined to punch their ticket to the PWVT Finals in May 2026 – take to the dirt at 8 p.m. PT on Friday, March 20 and then again at 7 p.m. PT on Saturday, March 21.
