WEYBURN, SK –– The Saskatchewan Oil & Gas Show announced on April 22 that attendee registration is now officially open for its highly anticipated 20th Biennial Event, scheduled to take place from June 4-6 in Weyburn, Saskatchewan.

Additionally, Tyler Smith, Humboldt Broncos crash survivor and mental health advocate, will share his inspirational journey during the safety stand down breakfast on Thursday morning.
“We are honored to welcome such esteemed guests to this year’s Saskatchewan Oil & Gas Show,” said Monica Osborn, show manager. “Their insights and experiences will undoubtedly enrich the discussions surrounding the oil and gas industry.”
Schedule
June 4 will feature an exhibitors golf tournament at the Weyburn Golf Club, as well as a steak or lobster banquet that evening which is open to the public but tickets must be purchased ahead of time. Note: the oil show proper will not be open on this day.
A brand new event, Outlaw Buckers and Oil Kings Match Bronc Riding, will bring the some of the best Saddle Bronc Riders and bucking stock to Southeast Saskatchewan for the first time, with $30,000 in prize money.
One of that event’s organizers, Robert Schmidt, said he wanted to bring something new to the show. “As a long-time attendee of the Oil and Gas Show, I wanted to bring something new and exciting to our community and put the Rodeo industry in the spotlight. With both Johnathan Kmita (Outlaw Buckers Rodeo Corp.Outlaw Buckers Rodeo Corp. ) and myself being heavily involved in rodeo, it seemed like the perfect fit to buck some horses at this year’s oil show.”
