The Estevan Exhibition Association is gearing up for one of the biggest weekends of the year — and according to 1st Vice President, Dallas Spencer, 2025 is shaping up to be even better than before.
From a Friday parade that rolls straight into the midway, to rodeo events, live music, and a cabaret, Energy City Ex promises three days of excitement for all ages. This year also brings improvements designed to keep things running smoothly, including adjusted rodeo times and a new emphasis on pre-purchased tickets to reduce wait times at the gate.
"We moved the rodeo performance back to 7:00 PM Friday night, just to give people time to enjoy the parade and make it down to the arena without rushing." —Dallas Spencer, Estevan Exhibition Association
