Cowtown Rodeo—the oldest weekly rodeo in the United States—opened on May 22, 2021, for its 67th season in rural Salem County, New Jersey. The rodeo offers a slice of classic Western lifestyle with events such as bull riding, tie-down roping, and barrel racing, for spectators to enjoy each Saturday evening all summer long.

Cowtown is owned and operated by the Harris family, who have been farmers and ranchers on the same land dating back 13 generations. The Harris family raises nearly all of the stock on their sprawling 1,700-acre property in Pilesgrove, New Jersey. Participants—both men and women—come from all over the country to compete in the various rodeo events.
