Birdsville Horse and Motorbike Gymkhana

This event for 2025 has been cancelled, 2026 dates to be announced . Next year, bring the whole family to the Bronco Branding Yards in Birdsville for an unforgettable weekend showcasing classic outback skills and country hospitality. Watch skilled bushmen and women in action as they demonstrate the traditional art of bronco branding. Saturday's all about horsemanship — get involved in barrel, flag and herding races, or enjoy the fast-paced fun from the sidelines. On Sunday, horsepower gives way to engine power, as riders take to the arena on dirt bikes and quads for another round of dusty thrills. With onsite catering, live music, and evening entertainment, it's a weekend not to miss. Mark your calendars for 2026 – and we'll see you in Birdsville!
