stetson nfr

It's time to meet the 15 athletes in each event for the NFR, as well as the National Breakaway Finals.

The dust has settled on the 2026 PRCA regular season. After thousands of miles traveled, countless rodeos entered, long nights on the road and the goal of qualifying for the National Finals Rodeo (NFR) driving them every day, the final 15 athletes in each discipline have earned their place on rodeo’s biggest stage.

It’s time to meet the final 15 athletes who will compete inside the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, December 3-12. Meanwhile, the top 15 breakaway ropers will head to the Will Rogers Coliseum in Fort Worth, Texas, December 18-19, ready to battle for their own piece of rodeo history.

As always, you can watch every second of the NFR and NBFR on Cowboy+.
