Come celebrate Memorial Weekend at the nation’s oldest African American rodeo in historic Boley, Oklahoma! Join the citizens of Boley and visitors from across the country and around the world for an exciting lineup of rodeo action, family-friendly activities, culture, history, and entertainment.

Our annual rodeo honors the rich legacy and historical significance of Boley, one of America’s historic all-Black towns, representing the communities established by African Americans seeking opportunity, self-determination, and prosperity following slavery and migration from the South.

Founded in 1903, the Boley Rodeo stands as a powerful celebration of Black Western heritage, community pride, and a tradition that continues to unite generations.
