PBR consistently delivers an unforgettable experience, and we're proud to feature our city as the venue for this electrifying event."

“There’s something very special about bulls at the beach, making Ocean City one of our tour’s most popular stops coast to coast,” said Sean Gleason, commissioner and CEO of PBR. “The past two years, we’ve hosted capacity crowds in the Ocean City Inlet and are thrilled to come back for the third straight year.”
