Do you sell tickets?
Tickets, credentials, and access depend on each event’s official channel and availability. We tell you what is possible before any proposal.
Rodeo is culture. The trip follows your interests.
The rodeo can be the center of the trip, and the West around it is part of the experience. We plan around your available time.
Talk to NomadeMore than a show
A rodeo shows a whole culture, from the arena to the fair, from the music to the ranch.
We design the trip so you see the event and also the place that sustains it.
How we plan the trip
- The event
- Each rodeo has its own style and scale. We tell you what to expect from each.
- The days
- Which days are worth it and what to see on each: competition, fair, music.
- The ranch
- If you want to stay at a ranch or ride at some point, we tell you the level each experience asks for.
- The region
- Small towns, roads, and western landscape that give the event its meaning.

Mistakes we help you avoid
- Overlooking schedules, distances and services in the town hosting the rodeo.
- Leaving planning until close to the event: small towns fill up.
- Underestimating the distances between towns in the West.
Questions that always come up
Can I go just for the event, for two or three days?
The duration is planned around your available time and what you want to experience.
When should I start planning?
As early as possible. Events have fixed dates, and lodging and transport near those dates tend to sell out first.
Which rodeo is in your plans?
Tell us which rodeo, who is going with you, whether you only want to watch or also live a ranch, and whether you have been to the West.
