Thursday – Tough Enough to Wear Pink
Hosted by Murdoch's Ranch & Home Supply
Wear your favorite shade of pink and join the Missoula Stampede as we raise awareness for breast cancer and honor survivors, those currently in treatment, and the families and friends who support them every day.
Tough Enough to Wear Pink has become one of professional rodeo's most meaningful traditions, transforming the grandstands into a powerful show of hope, courage, and community.

Before the first bronc leaves the chute, we celebrate the young people whose hard work, dedication, and sportsmanship make the Western Montana Fair so special.
Friday's Parade of Champions recognizes the outstanding 4-H and FFA exhibitors whose projects represent months—and often years—of commitment to agriculture, animal care, and leadership.
After celebrating these remarkable youth, you can support the next generation of agriculture by participating in the Western Montana Fair Livestock Auction beginning at 8:00 AM Saturday morning. Purchasing an animal—or simply attending the sale—is a meaningful way to invest in local youth and Montana agriculture.
Then enjoy another action-packed night of PRCA rodeo featuring every official event.

The Missoula Stampede concludes with Legends Night, an evening dedicated to celebrating the people who have helped shape Western Montana.
This year's performance honors Jim Sadler as the newest Western Montana Fair Legend, recognizing his lasting contributions to our community and the Fair. Join us as we celebrate a lifetime of dedication before another unforgettable night of championship PRCA rodeo.
Legends Night also includes a special tribute to the men and women who have served in the United States Armed Forces. Through patriotic ceremonies and heartfelt recognition, we honor the service, sacrifice, and commitment of our military community.
Then the spotlight turns to the arena for one final night of full PRCA rodeo action featuring all eight championship events—a fitting finale to the Missoula Stampede and the Western Montana Fair.
