Your Guide to the Wrangler NFR 2021

Written by

After a long year, the NFR 2021 is headed back to Las Vegas! If you aren’t excited, you should be because Cowboy Lifestyle Network is taking over Vegas December 2-11, 2021. Taking place at the good ole Thomas and Mack Center, fans and athletes alike are more than ready for the 10-day super bowl of rodeo. Below you will find everything you need to know about the NFR, plus some.

NFR 2021 will be taking place on December 2-11, 2021 at the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. The National Finals Rodeo has been taking place in Las Vegas for 35 years. Last year was the first year in 35 years that it didn’t take place in Vegas due to Covid-19. Previous to the Super Bowl of rodeo taking place in sin city, cowboys and cowgirls would head to Oklahoma City to battle it for the title of World Champion.

Road to the NFR

If you’re a lifelong rodeo fan then this information might not be new to you, but we are all about educating new fans so we want to include the in’s and out’s of what goes down during the ten days of the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo. Let’s start with the athletes. Athletes work all year round, October-September, trying to a spot in the top fifteen in their event. They work their way through the ranks by attending PRCA sanctioned rodeos and winning money that goes towards their year-end total, which determines who gets a ticket to the NFR in December. Check out the top 15 athletes headed to the NFR in each event below. All qualifiers include qualifying for the 2021 finals.

At the NFR

Average Winners & World Championship Winner

So we know that the top 15 contenders from each event make it to the NFR, but who gets the World Championship title? Good question! Each night of the NFR, there will be an average winner for the night and a “Gold Buckle” awarded for each event, every night. Average titles allow athletes to earn money throughout the week, adding to their total. Whoever has the most accumulated at the end is the World Champion. In some cases, we have seen athletes come, not win any averages, and still come out the champion. It really depends on how tight the competition is and who is bringing their A-game. Check out the full schedule of performances below.
