Thomas & Mack Center, Las Vegas
The National Finals Rodeo is the Super Bowl of professional rodeo, ten straight nights that crown the world champions, in Las Vegas in early December 2027.
The best cowboys and cowgirls in the world, in every event from bull riding to barrel racing, competing for world titles over ten performances at the Thomas & Mack Center. Around it, Las Vegas turns Western: cowboy Christmas, live music, and a devoted crowd that plans its whole year around these ten nights.

Where you sit
