ACTIVELY ENGAGE
IN THE COVERAGE OF THE RODEO
There are two levels of access for media: PRCA and General.
We have selected all official PRCA photographers for 2026. Please check back next year for access. Only PRCA photographers will be allowed inside the arena, and we are limited to three maximum.
General Media:
Reporters will receive credentials only if actively working for an approved affiliation covering the Tucson Rodeo. Proof of assignment must be provided. We have a limited number of passes for any given day/time, so we kindly request all media text or call Bekah prior to arrival (520-481-1184).
General Media are not permitted behind the chutes or in the arena, but will be allowed in “The Moat” and around the grounds. Our media team can help coordinate interviews as needed (please check with Bekah).
Check-In:
Media Badges are issued on a daily basis. Check-in is required each day at the Media Room. Each individual requesting a credential badge must sign his/her own waiver form before badge is issued. Credentials cannot be issued in advance.
Parking:
Available on the East parking lot. There is no designated media parking area. Please present your Press Badge or media ID to gain access to parking at no charge.
Dress Code:
PRCA photographers:
Long-sleeved, Western-style shirts, long pants or jeans and western boots or riding shoes. A cowboy hat is not required.
TV and news outlet photographers and reporters:
Closed-toe shoes or boots if shooting in working areas; short or long-sleeved shirts (no sleeveless, tank or halter tops); long trousers or jeans preferred.
Rodeo officials reserve the right to refuse or revoke credentials if dress is deemed unsafe or inappropriate. Dress code is determined by the Tucson Rodeo Committee to promote safety and to avoid visual distraction in photo presentations. Thank you for your cooperation.
Media Room Location:
The Tucson Rodeo Media Room is in a mobile office building at the east entrance to the Tucson Rodeo Grounds. Entrance to the east parking lot is off 3rd Avenue from Irvington Road.
