What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Miller Coliseum is a versatile venue praised for its capacity to host a wide range of events, from equestrian competitions to tractor pulls and dog shows.

"The horses were beautiful, the riders very pretty, slim, and elegant."
Fabiola Guzman
"Came for a dog show. The place is huge!! Grooming was in the warm up arena. It needed to be wetted and packed more. To much loose clay. Then they wet it down during the show turning everything to mud. Hopefully, they will figure it out by next year. Most people rented stalls for the concrete, but it was a long distance from the rings. If not raining, grooming in the parking lot is closer unless you need electricity for a blower."
Carra Cole
"My 2nd time here!
First time was for a Rodeo (but I didn't take photos).
To fight a Tractor Pull and it was awesome!
The coliseum is great, there's not a bad seat in the building. Bathrooms were clean."
