LETHBRIDGE, AB– After a 138-day hiatus from competition in Canada, PBR (Professional Bull Riders) will have one of the first fan-attended professional sporting events in the country.

Monster Energy Tour is holding back-to-back events on Thursday, July 23 in Lethbridge, at the ENMAX Centre.

PBR will welcome back fans by bringing the high-adrenaline action from inside the closed arena to fans via a suspended 23-foot big screen outside.

More than 200 parking stalls will be available to the public for purchase in the West Parking lot of the ENMAX Centre to watch all the action from.

The event will get underway at 1:00 p.m. MT on July 23 with the PBR Cooper Tires Invitational, followed by the PBR Built Ford Tough Invitational at 7:00 p.m. MT which you can watch on TSN.

“PBR was the first major professional sport to return to action in the US, and now we are excited to continue the cowboy spirit here in Canada by pioneering the return of sports with fans in attendance,” said PBR Canada General Manager Jason Davidson.

“We want to thank our fans for their patience and cooperation as well as our incredible partners in the ENMAX Centre and City of Lethbridge for their tireless work in helping us hold this event safely and responsibly.”

The guidelines and protocols in place for fans at the PBR Canada Monster Energy Tour LIVE: Drive-In Spectacular will include:

– Socially distanced parking stalls ensuring all groups of fans are kept at minimum six feet apart. All vehicles will also be mandated to park in straight fashion to prevent breaches in the social distanced spaces.

– Restricted movement for fans, who may only exit their vehicles to use the bathroom facilities.

– Portable bathroom facilities and handwashing stations will be sanitized between uses.

– Mobile ticketing to replace traditional printed tickets

Tickets are on sale now at ENMAXCentre.ca, and range in price from $59-$79. http://www.enmaxcentre.ca/events/event/pbr-canada-monster-energy-tour-live-drive-in-spectacular/2020-07-23
