PBR takes the dirt in...
Get Ready for Eight Seconds of Pure Adrenaline!
The Professional Bull Riders are charging into Southern California for an unforgettable run that spans two premier arenas and two unmissable seasons. From the explosive team showdown at Honda Center in Anaheim to the elite individual competition at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, PBR brings the world's top cowboys and 2,000-pound bucking bulls to LA-area fans in 2026 and 2027. Check the listings below to grab your seats before they sell out.
First up is the PBR Teams Series at Honda Center on September 11, 12, and 13, 2026. This high-octane format pits eight teams of the best bull riders on the planet against each other across three nights of head-to-head action. Friday night kicks things off at 6:45 PM with regular-season matchups that set the tone for the weekend. Saturday at 5:45 PM cranks the heat higher as the standings tighten, and Sunday afternoon at 1:15 PM delivers the championship round that decides who walks away with the win. With the team-based setup turning every ride into a points battle, the rivalries are electric and the energy never lets up.
Then in February 2027, the PBR Unleash The Beast tour lands at Crypto.com Arena for two nights of premier individual competition. On Friday and Saturday, February 26 and 27, the world's elite riders go head-to-head with the rankest stock in pro sports for their shot at qualifying points heading toward the 2027 PBR World Finals in Glendale, Arizona. Crypto.com Arena has been a fixture on the Unleash The Beast tour for years, and the Los Angeles crowd consistently shows up loud, packed, and ready to rumble. With the new season already underway, every event matters in the chase for the world championship.
PBR events are not your grandfather's rodeo. The production rivals an arena rock concert with pyrotechnics, pulsing music, dazzling light shows, and the kind of nonstop action that keeps fans on the edge of their seats. From the moment the chute opens to the final ride of the night, every eight-second matchup is a high-stakes test of grit, balance, and timing. Cowboys travel from across the United States, Brazil, Australia, and beyond to compete against bulls bred specifically to buck their hardest. Whether you are a longtime PBR fan or a first-timer curious to see what eight seconds of bull riding actually looks like, these five Southern California shows deliver pure spectacle.
Honda Center and Crypto.com Arena are two of the most iconic venues on the West Coast, and seeing PBR in either room is a bucket-list experience for any sports fan. Honda Center in Anaheim seats around 17,000 and puts you right on top of the dirt with great sightlines from almost every angle. Crypto.com Arena in downtown LA, home to the Lakers and Kings, brings the same big-game atmosphere to bull riding -- expect a full house, a roaring crowd, and production values that match the venue's reputation.

The Story Behind Professional Bull Riders
Professional Bull Riders, Inc. was founded in 1992 by a group of 20 forward-thinking bull riders who wanted to break away from traditional rodeo and build a standalone sport around the most dangerous and thrilling event on the dirt. What began as a grassroots effort has grown into the worlds premier bull riding organization, with more than 1,000 professional riders competing for millions in prize money across hundreds of events each year. Today PBR sanctions tours in the United States, Canada, Brazil, and Australia, and its top riders are global celebrities. You can learn more about the organization at PBR.com.
The format is straightforward: a rider has eight seconds to stay on a bucking bull while being judged on technique, control, and the difficulty of the bull. Score 90 or higher and you have done something special. Get bucked off before the buzzer and you score zero. The bulls themselves are athletes too -- they are bred and trained to perform, and the best of them earn their own honors at the end of each season. The combination of human grit and animal power is what makes every ride feel like an instant of pure suspense.
The PBR Teams Series, launching in 2022, brought a team-based twist to the sport that quickly captured fan attention. Eight teams compete head-to-head over weekend-long homestand events, with a regular season that culminates in a playoff and championship round. The Anaheim stop at Honda Center is one of the marquee weekends on the schedule, with teams jockeying for postseason positioning. You can browse the full Teams Series schedule on the official PBR Teams Series page.
The Unleash The Beast tour is PBRs elite individual circuit -- the worlds best bull riders chasing world championship points one event at a time. The 2027 season opens in Manchester, NH in December and culminates with the PBR World Finals in Glendale, Arizona on May 20-23, 2027. The Los Angeles stop at Crypto.com Arena on February 26-27 falls right in the heart of the regular season, when standings are tightening and every qualifying point matters.
Honda Center in Anaheim, located at 2695 East Katella Avenue, has hosted PBR for years and is one of the most fan-friendly venues on the tour. With a capacity of around 17,000 and excellent sightlines from every level, even upper-bowl seats feel close to the dirt. Visit the Honda Center website for parking, accessibility, and arena policies. Crypto.com Arena in downtown LA, home to the Lakers, Clippers, and Kings, brings big-league energy and downtown access -- it is steps from L.A. Live, dozens of restaurants, and Metro Rail.
Whichever date you pick, expect a high-energy production. PBR has built its reputation on combining hardcore competition with arena-rock spectacle -- pyrotechnics, lighting rigs, walkout music for every rider, and a relentless pace that never lets the crowd settle. Tickets are available on BigStub, where every order is backed by a full buyer guarantee, verified sellers, and over two decades of trusted service.
