What to Expect During NFR / Rodeo Finals

The Wrangler National Finals Rodeo is a ten-day event that brings the cowboy culture to Las Vegas every December. Over 170,000 rodeo fans pack the Thomas & Mack Center for championship rodeo action, and the party extends across the entire Strip with country concerts, western-themed events, and a unique nightlife energy. The NFR crowd is known for their enthusiasm and spending, making it one of the most profitable weeks for nightlife venues. Cowboy hats and boots replace designer outfits as the dress code shifts for this uniquely Vegas tradition.
