This is the first time MIETV has hosted a rodeo on New Year’s Eve, sponsored by Mount Isa City Council in association with APRA and Isa Rodeo.
Bull riding, bareback, saddle bronc, and all the usual favourites delighted crowds seeing in the new year.
Mount Isa Entertainment Tourism Venues (MIETV) Business Manager Angi Matveyeff says the event was a huge success, and both Police and security were very happy with crowd behaviour.
The Department of Communities, Child Safety and Disability Services also partnered with council to subsidise the event, making attendance more affordable.
