Buckeye Rodeo coming to Hilltop Speedway in Millersburg June 27

Hilltop Speedway in Millersburg will trade its usual role for a rodeo stage when Buckeye Rodeo arrives Saturday, June 27, from 7 to 10 p.m. at 2927 County Road 150. The evening show gives Holmes County families a different kind of summer-night outing at a familiar venue.

The Holmes County Chamber of Commerce lists the event, and the Buckeye Rodeo Company schedule shows the Millersburg stop as part of a broader 2026 circuit across Ohio. That makes the date more than a one-off appearance: it places Holmes County on a traveling lineup that is moving from community to community throughout the season.

For Millersburg, the draw is as much about the setting as the event itself. Hilltop Speedway already has a name local residents recognize, and the site offers room for a live show built around a larger crowd and the kind of activity that comes with rodeo competition. In a county where summer calendars often fill with concerts, festivals, and craft events, a rodeo night gives people a different reason to head out after dinner.

The format also gives the event a wider reach than a typical downtown gathering. Rodeo fans, families looking for an evening outing, and visitors who follow livestock events all fit the audience Buckeye Rodeo can attract. That mix could help bring in people who do not usually make it to the speedway, while also giving local residents another option close to home.

Millersburg already serves as Holmes County’s county seat and a central meeting point, which makes the speedway a practical spot for a summer event designed to draw from across the area. With a Saturday night start and a recognizable local venue, Buckeye Rodeo is positioned to become one more strong summer-night option in Holmes County.
