WEEDSPORT, NY (April 2, 2026) – Weedsport Speedway, in conjunction with the All-American Rodeo Company, is proud to welcome the Port City Stampede, presented by FX Caprara Car Companies, on Saturday, August 1.
Since 1955, Weedsport has played host to a variety of entertainment staples, but a rodeo will be a first in 2026 as The Port brings in the best riders, ropers and racers from the northeast and beyond for this PRCA and WRPA sanctioned Pro Rodeo event.
“This is a truly unique experience for all of us to be involved in,” said Weedsport Speedway General Manager, Jimmy Phelps. “We’re expecting a nice turnout of fresh eyes here at the facility and are excited to see how the track transforms into a rodeo venue. Promoting Weedsport as a multi-use facility has been a consistent goal and this is the next step in continuing that progress. We cannot thank everyone with the All-American Rodeo Company enough for their work in helping to make this a seamless effort.”
Pre-sale adult tickets are now on sale for $30 and can be purchased online through the tickets tab at www.weedsportspeedway.com.
Pre-sale adult “Pit Passes” are also available which feature exclusive access across the property, as well as upgraded infield seating to get closer to the exciting action. Only 500 adult all-access Pit Passes will be sold.
Action on August 1 will include PRO sanctioned bareback, saddleback and bull riding, as well as PRO sanctioned tiedown, team roping and steer wrestling. WPRA sanctioned barrel racing and breakaway roping will also be part of the evening.
Those in attendance will enjoy visits from national rodeo entertainers Dave “Showtime” Meyer and Lexee Jo Barvain.
The Port City Stampede will offer something for everyone as children’s events and entertainment are planned along with live musical entertainment and happy hour drink specials from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Port Side Pub.
Gates will open on August 1 at 5 p.m.
Hospitality suites are also now available for all events in 2026. Weedsport’s suites offer an unmatched experience, high above the racing surface, and provide a perfect setting for a group party or corporate night out.

About Weedsport Speedway: Officially opened for the first time on July 24, 1955 – the Weedsport Speedway 3/8 mile dirt oval has produced a legendary list of drivers and champions including Will Cagle, Danny Johnson, Bob McCreadie, Alan Johnson, Jack Johnson, and Dave Lape to name a few. In 2018, Weedsport introduced the all-new Weedsport Kartway, just outside of the Speedway’s main pit area, to begin to foster the next generation of racers, crew members and race fans. Couple the racing with state-of-the-art camping and track amenities, unmatched on-site television production capabilities, plus the ability for large scale concert productions and Weedsport is one of the marquee entertainment venues in the country.
