Professional Bull Riding returns to Grande Prairie for Peace Country Invitational

Grande Prairie is set to host its sixth Professional Bull Riders Canada’s Elite Cup Series event during the PBR Peace Country Invitational at Bonnetts Energy Centre on September 27th.

The PBR Peace Country Invitational will mark the seventh event of the 2025 regular season for the series.

The last time the series came to Grande Prairie was in 2024, when Saskatchewan’s Cody Coverchuk went a perfect three for three to win the invitational, stealing the number one rank in the fierce race for 2024 gold and its $100K payday.

The Meadow Lake product chose to go head-to-head with Langham Kid in the championship round- a decision which proved dividends; however, Coverchuk managed to reach the whistle for an event best 87.5 points, clinching the victory.

Other past PBR Canada Cup Series event winners in Grande Prairie include Eatonia’s Dakota Buttar, Aaron Roy from Yellow Grass, Jake Gardner from Fort St. John, Lonnie West from Cadogan, and Ponoka’s Zane Lambert.

The event is scheduled for September 27th. Tickets go on sale on April 25th at 10:00 a.m. online or through the phone at (780)-538-0387.
