Food, Entertainment & Market Stalls
For the most up to date information on who’ll be at the event, we suggest you head to the Double Barrel Entertainment Facebook Page and make sure to like us. If you’re not on social media, we’ll be updating the page as we finalise details. But we can tell you that food and clothing stalls will be avaialble on site.
Music
We suggest you head to our Facebook page where we’ll announce this year’s music line-up as they come on board.
Alcohol
The rodeo arena is a fully licensed venue so no BYO.
Acceptable Behaviour
The Dongara Rodeo is a family friendly event.
It’s for the enjoyment of everyone. Put simply, if you can’t handle your booze and you’re behaving like a yobo, you will be escorted from the grounds – either by security or the police.
The camp site is not a place for burnouts, aggressive behaviour, 4am music blaring or helping yourself to things that aren’t yours. If you can’t follow the rules, don’t buy a ticket.
Pets
For the safety of everybody concerned, no pets (other than trained service animals) are to be bought onto the campsite.
We appreciate they’re a part of your family, but our livestock is part of ours and unfortunately, due to past experiences, we have to say no to all other animals. That includes sweet little Fido who never leaves your side – he’ll need to find another home for the weekend.
EFTPOS
EFTPOS facilities are available at the bar and for some of the food vans, market stalls etc. However, we suggest you bring cash with you as well as the machines can sometimes drop out.

We’ll post the details for rodeo entries closer to the date.
