Attica Rodeo Show
The 62nd annual Attica Rodeo Show will again be hosted in Attica, NY. The four-day rodeo will feature different performances everyday, including live music. The show will run everyday from August 1 until August 4, tickets gain entry for their assigned days, so multiple will be required if you desire to attend the rodeo for more than one day.
Competitors compete for cash prizes in a variety of events, which include: bareback riding, steer wrestling, team roping, saddle bronc riding, tie-down roping, barrel racing, breakaway roping and of course bull riding. Performances typically run for around three hours, and there is a cowboy party Thursday, Friday and Saturday night for any participants and spectators after the event. There is no fee to participate in the after party.
Attending the Attica Rodeo Show
You can purchase tickets in advance for $16 for adults, $6 for children (ages six through 12) and children five and under are free. Busier days, like Friday and Saturday night, often have longer lines, buying tickets in advance can help avoid the lines. The Attica Rodeo & Show Association recommends arriving an hour in advance to get the most desirable seating.

Come hungry and leave satisfied this Labor Day weekend at the 2019 National Buffalo Wing Festival! The idea for this festival began when the 2001 film Osmosis Jones was released. Bill Murray stars as a compulsive eater whose goal is to attend the National Buffalo Wing Festival. At the time, this festival was fiction, until Buffalo native Drew Cerza decided to make it a reality in 2002. Cerza, also known as the “Wing King,” started this festival in order to help change the way Buffalo is viewed. Part of what makes it so special is that portions of the proceeds are donated to several local charities. Now entering its 17th year, the National Buffalo Wing Festival has drawn more than 865,000 people and served over 4.6 million wings.
The National Buffalo Wing Festival is host to not only buffalo wing eating contests, but also musical entertainment, a 5K, a Ninja Warrior Challenge filled with obstacles, cooking competitions, and even a pageant! Be prepared to watch as adults and college students stuff their faces with delicious buffalo wings and see who comes out the winner! Kids can be part of the fun as well with the Baby Wing Contest, where children as young as newborns can compete in a Buffalo-themed costume contest to see who has the most Buffalo spirit! A weekend filled with food, fun, and Buffalo-themed activities, this festival is one not to miss!
