Written by

This year, celebrate Independence Day the Vegas way – at the iconic Rio Hotel & Casino! After the incredible success of the Rio Round-Up during the 2024 Wrangler National Finals Rodeo, CLN is back once again, July 4th and 5th, for the ultimate Fourth of July extravaganza. Join us for all-day country throwdowns – swim, sip, dance, and watch the sky light up over the Strip from a VIP viewing party at VooDoo Lounge.

“The Rio Round-Up was a huge success during the NFR and we wanted to continue that momentum. So we figured, why not throw a country pool party? We’ve got great music, dancing, and just a fun, 100% country vibe.”
