YOUNGSTOWN The Professional Bull Riders, or PBR, will bring its Pendleton Whisky Velocity Tour back to the Covelli Centre for the third consecutive season, and eighth time in PBR history, on Feb. 27-28, 2026. Tickets for the Busch Light PBR Youngstown event are on sale now.

The two-day event will feature 40 top riders competing in two rounds atop some of the rankest bulls in the sport. The top 10 riders with the highest aggregate scores after the first two rounds will advance to the third and final championship round to compete for the event title.

The Covelli Centre will be converted into an arena using 750 tons of dirt, or 1.5 million pounds. A crew of about 30 will work to prepare the venue. The event is set to feature more than 50 bucking bulls.
