In early to mid-August, the city hosts the Omak Stampede, a large and festive annual rodeo that includes the Suicide Race, where horses and riders go down a 62% slope that runs for 225 feet (70m) into the Okanogan River. This downhill racing aspect of the rodeo experience isn't for everyone, but is a tradition of the area.
