Recognized as the world's premier rodeo, the 56th annual Wrangler National Finals Rodeo will begin on Thursday, Dec. 4 and end on Saturday, Dec. 13 at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas. The Wrangler NFR is the annual culminating championship for the PRCA and ProRodeo's ultimate championship. The sport's world champions are determined after the conclusion of the 10-day Wrangler NFR.
The race to qualify for the Wrangler NFR ends on or prior to Sept. 30. At the conclusion of the regular season, the top 15 contestants in each event's PRCA World Standings qualify for the Wrangler NFR.
In an effort to make picking up the credentials more efficient, we are producing many of the credentials in advance, but in order to have yours ready when you arrive we will need a 2x2 mug shot of those being credentialed e-mailed to us no later than Nov. 15. Complete information can be found on the bottom of the credential application. If you do not send a mug shot in advance, then you will just have to get it taken as in years past.
Several upcoming important dates are:
Sept. 30 2014 regular season ends; the top 15 contestants in PRCA World Standings qualify
Oct. 1 Credential applications sent to members of the national media
Nov. 15 Deadline for submitting media credentials applications and mug shots
Dec. 2 Athletes begin arriving in Las Vegas for the competition
Dec. 4 2014 Wrangler NFR begins
2014 marks the 56th year of the Wrangler NFR and the 30th year in Las Vegas. The event is one of the hardest tickets to obtain in sports, boasting a sold-out attendance of more than 175,000 per year for more than two decades running.
