Who says competition in Vegas is just for the pros? The top youth rodeo competitors will also get their chance to shine under the Las Vegas lights at the YETI Junior World Finals! Founded in 2015, the event runs concurrently with the NFR and will once again host more than 800 contestants December 5-14. Located in the heart of Las Vegas, each contestant competes at the Las Vegas Convention Center for more than $1 million in combined cash and prize payout on their quest to claim a coveted Montana Silversmiths championship buckle.

You’ve spent all day watching the best youth competitors in the world compete, but now it’s time
to watch the pros – but where? Kick up your boots at the Stetson Cowboy Christmas Watch
Party at the Rio RoundUp inside the one and only Rio Las Vegas!
Stetson Country Christmas Watch Party
December 5–14, 2024
Voted the best new NFR watch party in Las Vegas!
Hosted by world-famous Matt Merritt, with special celebrity guest hosts nightly prizes, giveaways, fun & entertainment.
Seating begins at 5:00 pm nightly at the Rio Masquerade Village on the casino floor.
The party doesn’t end after the last bull bucks! Catch the performances at The Stillery located
on the Rio Masquerade Village on the casino floor. The Stillery is having its very own pop-up bar during the NFR where you can enjoy a signature cocktail. Check out their permanent locations in Nashville, Tennessee; Chandler, Happy Valley, and Goodyear, Arizona; and Westminster, Colorado. There will be a dance floor to dance the night away while listening to authentic music and enjoying a cold one.
Contestants from across the country, as well as from Canada, Mexico, and Australia, are scheduled to compete in nine events – Bareback Riding, Saddle Bronc Riding, Bull Riding, Steer Wrestling, Tie-down Roping, Team Roping, Barrel Racing, Breakaway Roping, and Pole Bending. Each event also features different age categories.
This year’s venue will look a little different. After previously being held in Central Hall 2 of the LV Convention Center last year after a longstanding run on the second floor of the convention center’s South Hall, the Junior World Finals will be held outside in a 52,000 square-foot tent just south of The Cowboy Channel Cowboy Christmas.
Why should the professionals be the only ones to walk the gold carpet and enjoy the back number ceremony production? In an effort to make the experience as memorable as possible for each youth competitor, back number ceremonies will be held at both Sam’s Town and The STRAT. Let’s rodeo, Vegas!
