Rodeo 4 Life 2025 – A Night That Entertained, Engaged and Educated!

​

Wollongong came alive on a Saturday night as Rodeo 4 Life 2025 delivered an unforgettable arena spectacular, uniting thrilling rodeo action with a meaningful purpose.

With a full house and an electric atmosphere at the WIN Entertainment Centre, fans witnessed the best bull riders in the country compete fiercely, showcasing both Australia’s top-ranked riders and an exciting new generation of talent.

Rodeo 4 Life is more than just a sporting event; it serves as a platform built on three powerful pillars: entertainment, engagement, and education.

This year's show was our biggest yet, featuring one of the largest prize pools in Australian rodeo history, a groundbreaking set design and a crowd-pleasing performance by country music star Travis Collins who made history by performing from a stage lowered from the stadium roof—a first for an Australian indoor rodeo.

The new layout enhanced the experience for everyone involved—from the riders and bulls to the thousands of fans in the stands.

It was a true stadium-scale production, brought to life by an incredible team of event professionals and supported by the Wollongong community, sponsors and partners who continue to champion our cause.

Founded by Doug Vickers, a grateful liver transplant recipient, Rodeo 4 Life aims to raise awareness for DonateLife and to fund vital, world-first research into liver transplants through the RPA Transplant Institute.

With 100% of event profits going directly to support this research, every ticket sold and every cheer from the crowd contributes to making a real impact.

We thank everyone who joined us for this powerful night—a celebration of courage, connection and purpose. Together, we continue to help save lives.
