The event will be running between Nov. 13 and 14. It’s the sixth time the event will be taking place in Edmonton.

“The National Finals have grown into an annual tradition in Alberta, where fans from across the country come to ICE District for a high-energy celebration of the western lifestyle, world-class rodeo talent, and the incredible spirit of bull riding,” said Stu Ballantyne, president and COO of Rogers Place and ICE District in a news release.

“We look forward to once again partnering with the PBR to deliver a one-of-a-kind experience for fans, riders and everyone else involved in this special weekend event.”

This year’s PBR at Rogers Place saw a record-breaking 17,300 fans in the arena. Jared Parsonage from Maple Creek, Sask. delivered a perfect performance and won the national title.

Riders across Canada compete at dozens of local events to earn points towards the chance to compete at the PBR Canada Championship. This year, the Cup Series toured 11 cities and welcomed more than 75,000 fans.
