Surrey, B.C. – Under another cloudless blue sky and in front of another sell-out crowd at Jamie Rogers Arena, the final pool round of the 2026 Cloverdale Rodeo wrapped up Sunday afternoon with athletes battling for every point and dollar as the race to Monday’s Finals came into focus. Pool B competitors delivered clutch rides and fast times in one of the weekend’s most important performances, with the top money earners across both go-rounds officially punching their tickets to the Finals on Monday afternoon.
Tickets for Sunday’s Pool B Go Round 2 sold out days in advance, continuing the trend of packed rodeo performances throughout the 2026 Cloverdale Rodeo. Fans who weren’t able to secure a seat at the Stetson Bowl still had the opportunity to catch every second of the action through the Cloverdale Rodeo’s official live stream, which drew record-breaking online viewership over the weekend. The expanded digital broadcast allowed rodeo fans from across Canada and beyond to follow the competition in real time, replay key moments, and stay connected to one of Western Canada’s premier rodeo events.
Monday’s finals are also a full sell-out, so the best way to catch the action is to watch the live stream either at home or at the viewing party at the Lasso Lounge on site at the Fairgrounds.
