Metropark confirms PBR stop in April 2026, previews Chase Hawks memorial rodeo and Nate Bergazzi show
Metropark's general manager confirmed that Billings will host a Professional Bull Riders (PBR) stop in April 2026 and said the city has a longstanding history with the event. "We were one of the original stops when they first started, 30 years ago," she said.

The manager also previewed Chase Hawks, a memorial all-roughstock rodeo held each December and organized by a board that raises funds year-round; she said it will be held at the First Interstate Bank Arena and that exact dates are not recalled during the interview. She described the Chase Hawks rodeo as a community-focused fundraiser with strong seasonal attendance.

On the performing-arts side, Metropark has presales underway for comedian Nate Bergazzi in January. The manager described his show as family-friendly and said the promoter configured the performance "in the round," which increases available seats. She reported nearly 5,000 tickets sold in the first five days and said the configuration could allow "well over 10,000" seats.

Metropark also noted growth among year-round events on its grounds, citing a doubling in size for Comic Con over two years and growing home-improvement and RV show activity. Specific dates for some events remain to be announced; the manager said they are finalizing calendars as availability and touring schedules allow.
