The Wrangler NFR is the richest, largest, and most prestigious rodeo in the world. It’s one of the top events of the year in Las Vegas, bringing in cowboys from around the country to compete, watch, and ride.

The Las Vegas NFR Event is the culmination of the rodeo season where the top 15 contestants in bareback riding, steer wrestling, team roping, saddle bronc riding, tie-down roping, barrel racing, and bull riding compete to take home top honors and their share of a multi-million dollar purse.

LAS VEGAS – Everything is bigger in Texas, including the manpower behind RodeoHouston and the generosity this iconic rodeo has exhibited over the years. Boasting a $1,748,000 payout at the 2019 rodeo, Houston has donated more than $500 million to youth and education since 1932 thanks to an army of more than 35,000 volunteers and 108 committees. “It’s a bit of a phenomenon,” said.
