Here’s the latest on Cloverdale Rodeo and Country Fair (as of May 2026).
- The event extended to a five-day format in 2026, running May 14–18 in Surrey, BC, with a Kickoff Concert on the Thursday evening headlined by Brett Kissel and Cooper Alan. This represented a new opening day concept not seen since 2008.[1][2]
- The May long weekend lineup includes a mix of rodeo competitions, live country music on multiple stages, and the largest traveling midway with dozens of rides, plus family attractions such as Farm Friendz and an Indigenous Village.[2]
- The kickoff concert is designed to set the festival mood for the weekend, with added attractions like a drone show and a 19+ late-night venue called Rodeo Reds.[3][2]
- Global BC coverage highlighted the expansion and new attractions, including drone shows and a broader entertainment slate, while emphasizing the community and family-friendly aspects alongside the late-night options.[5]
