Know Before You Go

The Wrangler National Finals Rodeo® has three (3) entrances into the Thomas and Mack Center.

Doors Open:
4 p.m. – Cowboy Corral Entrance and The Cowboy Channel Bar Entrance
4:15 p.m. – Main Entrance

During the NFR, metal detectors will be utilized at all entrances. This feature will provide an additional safety measure for all attending rodeo fans. Please arrive a few minutes earlier than normal to navigate through this process.

A Clear Bag Policy is in effect all ten (10) performances of the NFR. A bag check will be available, for a fee, for non-approved items located before entering the metal detectors near The Cowboy Channel Bar entrance. Click here for more information.

The Wrangler NFR utilizes both mobile and printed souvenir “hard” tickets.
