DENVER — The best 16 days in January are right around the corner.
The National Western Stock Show announced that tickets are officially on sale for the 16-day event in 2025.
A Colorado tradition since 1906, the part-rodeo, part-livestock show and part-fair brings hundreds of thousands of people to the National Western Complex each year for a celebration of our state’s agricultural heritage.
The 118th annual National Western Stock Show and Rodeo opens Saturday, Jan. 11, and continues through Sunday, Jan. 26.
"The National Western Stock Show is a time-honored tradition that celebrates our agricultural roots and Western heritage," said Paul Andrews, President & CEO of the National Western Stock Show. "We look forward to welcoming visitors from all over the world to experience the best 16 days in January."
The National Western Stock Show will host 29 rodeo performances, including Colorado vs. the World rodeos, Mexican Rodeo Extravaganza, PBR Bull Riding, and MLK Jr. African-American Heritage Rodeo. There is also a full schedule of horse shows, starting with the RAM Freestyle Reining show and family events, including the Xtreme Dog shows and Wild West shows.
The National Western has one of the world’s richest regular-season professional rodeos, one of the country’s largest horse shows and Colorado’s largest agricultural trade show. The Stock Show welcomes attendees from 48 states and 32 countries and will drive an estimated $120 million in economic impact to the Denver area, organizers said.
Hosting over 25 breeds of cattle, bison, yaks, and longhorns, the Cille and Ron Williams Yards and the HW Hutchison Family Stockyards Event Center are the epicenter for the 2025 Super Bowl of livestock shows.
