Saddle Up for the 2023 NFR: A Roundup of Participants list Revealed

2023 NFR, Featured November 29, 2023

Participants List:

It’s almost time for the most prestigious rodeo event in the world, the National Finals Rodeo. The event is scheduled from December 7 to 16 at the Thomas & Mack Stadium in Las Vegas.

The top 15 contestants, each in bareback riding, steer wrestling, team roping (headers and heelers), saddle bronc riding, tie-down roping, barrel racing, and bull riding, compete for the whooping prize purse and the coveted PRCA Gold Buckle.

These athletes progressed to the NFR based on money won during the regular season, including ProRodeo Tour events, the Justin Playoffs, and, for many bull riders, PRCA Xtreme Bulls Tour earnings and will be showcasing their hard work and dedication against other athletes competing for the titles.
