Maui Bull Bash 2025

The Maui Bull Bash is a thrilling highlight of the annual Makawao Stampede Rodeo, held every July at the Oskie Rice Event Center in Makawao. This event features courageous bull riders who attempt to stay mounted on bucking bulls for eight seconds, showcasing extraordinary strength, balance, and determination. The Bull Bash draws competitors from across Hawaii, the mainland, and even internationally, creating a lively and sold-out atmosphere filled with excitement and community spirit. It is part of a larger celebration of Hawaiian cowboy culture, known as paniolo, which includes other rodeo events like barrel racing, team roping, and sheep riding for children.
