Join us for Hawaiian Night this Thursday, Aug. 12th

Hawaiian Night August 12, 2021

Kids of all ages will enjoy Hawaiian Night. No matter if you want to celebrate the heritage of the Paniolo, remember your last visit or just wear a loud shirt or other island attire, the Carbondale Rodeo’s annual Hawaiian night, August 12th is sure to be a colorful night.

Kids and adults alike don the grass skirts and Hawaiian shirts and watch our cowboys, cowgirls and horses rock their Hawaiian attire. All other rodeos you will see our cowboys, cowgirls and volunteers in long sleeved western shirts and full western attire. Hawaiian night that decorum is overlooked and we say aloha to a night of bright colorful fun.

Want to see cowboys in grass skirts? This is the night.
