About Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo

The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo at NRG Park is the world's largest livestock show and rodeo, a twenty-day February through March spectacle that draws over two million visitors annually and generates millions in educational scholarships for Texas students.

What to Expect

Expect world-class ProRodeo competition in a 70,000-seat stadium, headliner concerts every night (from country to pop to rock), champion livestock from across the country, carnivals, a barbecue cook-off with hundreds of competing teams, and the full energy of the most impactful fair event in Texas.

Visitor Tips

The Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo barbecue cook-off opens the event and is a massive spectacle in itself — plan around a headliner concert and arrive early for the livestock shows. NRG Park has excellent transit access via the METRORail Red Line.
