Founded in 1966.

The first adjudicated music festival took place in Swift Current in 1930, and these festivals have continued ever since, even during war years. G.E. Bowers and Dorthea Horton were named President and Secretary-Treasurer in 1931.

Since 1937, the Museum has collected artifacts and produced exhibitions and programming to preserve and promote the history of Swift Current and the surrounding region.

The team was created in the wake of the Swift Current Broncos becoming the Lethbridge Broncos in 1974. Originally dubbed the "Broncos", the team changed their name to the "Indians" in 1983. The team folded in 1986 when the original Broncos came back to the City of Swift Current in 1986. The "SJHL Broncos" won the SJHL Championship in their first ever season in the league.

The Broncos started out as the Swift Current Broncos in Swift Current, Saskatchewan, but moved to Lethbridge in 1974. The team had been losing money in Swift Current and the new Lethbridge Sportsplex was beckoning for a team. The Broncos played in Lethbridge for twelve seasons, winning the President's Cup in 1982–83. In the mid 1980s, the team came up for sale, and despite a large and loyal fanbase in Lethbridge, the Broncos were bought by local interests in Swift Current and moved back to their original home. The Lethbridge Hurricanes moved in to replace the Broncos in the southern Alberta city.

The team won its only Memorial Cup championship two years later at the 1989 Memorial Cup. In the 1993 Memorial Cup, the Broncos were eliminated in a tie-breaker. Afterwards, the team's only head coach Graham James resigned to coach the Calgary Hitmen, but three seasons later, allegations arose that he sexually abused former player Sheldon Kennedy during their days together with the Broncos. James was convicted of sexual offenses and sentenced to three years in prison.

The Broncos play their home games at the Credit Union iPlex.
