In its 10th year, Bulls on the Beach returns to the Flora-Bama, the iconic watering hole on the Gulf, that straddles the Florida/Alabama state line, on Sept. 7-9.

Doors open at 6 p.m. each night kicking off the event with live music in the arena, face painting, cotton candy, food and drinks. The rodeo runs from 8-9:45 p.m. with plenty of fun for the whole family, including high energy bull riding, entertaining rodeo clowns, and youth riding competitions. This event is free for children 6 and younger, $15 per day for 7-17, and $30 for 18 and up. Purchase your tickets now at florabama.com/tickets.
