Dear Wrangler NFR Fans,
Round up the cattle, dim the lights and let’s get saddled up!
It’s time for the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo® and Vegas will bring MORE to the party.
For 37 years, Las Vegas and the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association have partnered to grow and evolve the greatest show on dirt and one of the longest running sporting events in Las Vegas. Here’s a tip of the Resistol for being a part of 340 straight sellouts and Las Vegas’ annual December tradition. You can take a walk down memory lane with us at The Cowboy Channel Cowboy Christmas and inside Aces High Saloon & Exhibit where there is a collection of images celebrating the NFR’s history in Las Vegas.
Our commitment to rodeo fans choosing to make the trip to Vegas each year is to improve upon each “Moment of Truth.” Our goal is to assist you in engaging with all elements that make up the NFR Experience. And each year we want to offer you MORE!
MORE this year means amped up openings, a celebration of three Vegas NFR Icons, a new Christmas-themed exhibit at The Cowboy Channel Cowboy Christmas and much more.
Our 20+ hotel partners will again raise the bar with MORE. Look no further than the MORE Vegas/Stay Your Way feature at NFRexperience.com where you can view lists and links to shop for your room and every NFR Experience you can imagine.
It’s never been easier to make your plans. You can choose from the the long list of concerts, The Cowboy Channel Cowboy Christmas and five other gift shows, the YETI Junior World Finals, Ariat World Series of Team Roping, ALL In Barrel Racing, any one of 25 NFR Live presented by Teton Ridge viewing parties or simply reconnect at the hundreds of Vegas watering holes overrun by cowboy hats. It’s all at NFRexperience.com/StayYourWay.
In this guide and at NFRexperience.com, you will find comprehensive schedules for Wrangler NFR 9-5, Wrangler NFR After Dark and Entertainment Around Town. Also included are Las Vegas Strip and Downtown maps to assist you in getting around and discovering what has become known as the NFR Experience.
When you attend the Wrangler NFR at the Thomas & Mack Center, we invite you to check out the ProRodeo Zone, live music in Cowboy Corral and Aces High – Saloon & Exhibit, a fully-themed Western hospitality and interactive space that also features a Strip-view pavilion and an entry from the northwest end of the arena.
During the day, explore The Cowboy Channel Cowboy Christmas, located inside the South Halls at the Las Vegas Convention Center. In addition to the ultimate shopping experience, the area also includes live entertainment, autograph sessions, the Wrangler Rodeo Arena, saloon, interactive booths, rodeo exhibits and more. At The Cowboy Channel Cowboy Christmas, It’s All Here!
In addition, the YETI Junior World Finals will be held inside the Wrangler Rodeo Arena and will run for ten consecutive days. Youth contestants will compete for titles in nine events, including bull riding, team roping, tie-down roping, steer wrestling, barrel racing, pole bending, breakaway, saddle bronc riding and bareback riding.
While the greatest rodeo competitors in the world chase the coveted gold buckles, we invite you to share in the Western heritage and experience everything that Las Vegas and the Wrangler NFR has to offer.
Get on and enjoy the ride!

Rodeo Fans,
We would like to welcome you to the 2022 Cowboy Channel Cowboy Christmas, where we are celebrating our 36th year as the official gift show of the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo. Every year we pride ourselves in bringing the best Western experience and more to our rodeo fans and guests.
At The Cowboy Channel Cowboy Christmas, you will find more than 450,000 square feet of show floor with more than 350 exhibitors from across the United States – all of which means more variety for you! While there are other trade shows in town, our goal is to deliver a one-of-a-kind Western experience.
Here at The Cowboy Channel Cowboy Christmas, you can watch the future of rodeo compete for the coveted Montana Silversmiths Championship Buckle and $1 million in cash and prizes at the YETI Junior World Finals, taking place inside the Wrangler Rodeo Arena. Our professional producers of nine different events hold qualifiers throughout the year represented in more than 30 states and three countries. These cowboys and cowgirls are 19 years old and younger and compete in bull riding, bareback riding, saddle bronc riding, steer wrestling, breakaway, team roping, tie-down roping, barrel racing and pole bending. With general admission and VIP seating for more than 1,200 fans, come see and cheer on the future of rodeo!
Our team has been hard at work to bring you more new and exciting features in 2022. The Christmas Village adjacent to Bites & Brews will feature Santa, the Cowboy Kissmas arch and several other holiday photo opportunities. Also featured on the second level are award winning Cowboy Christmas exhibitors, coupled with RMEF’s Hunter & Outdoor Christmas Expo and Bites & Brews, with new food vendors to satisfy any appetite while offering ample space to enjoy the live feed from all the action of the YETI Junior World Finals.
If you enjoyed the changes from the 2021 Ariat Rodeo Live Stage, we have more to share with you in 2022. The programming will start at 10 a.m. with the RMEF Calcutta. The Nashville songwriter Shane Minor will welcome his talented music artist friends to join him on the stage for Cowboy Revival. “Outside The Barrel,” hosted by the one and only Flint Rasmussen, will bring the “Who’s Who” from all areas of the Western lifestyle starting at 12:15 p.m. Starting at 1:30 p.m., The Cowboy Channel NFR Tailgate Party will keep things rolling in preparation for each Wrangler NFR performance during their 2+ hour high energy show. New this year will be a series of panels featuring rodeo legends and current NFR contestants.
Looking for more? Come check it out for yourself to see where you can find the top entertainers, restaurants, viewing parties and other NFR Experience activities inside the NFR After Dark exhibit.
