San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo

The San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo has been a tradition in South Texas since 1949.  It has received  international recognition including receipt of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA) Large Indoor Rodeo of the Year award for over a decade. Western Horse & Gun magazine proclaimed the San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo “a must see rodeo”. Cowboys & Indians magazine said, “The San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo… the rose of San Antone, has evolved into a world class event”. ProRodeo Sports calls it, “a gold standard event for contestants and fans alike.”

The Rodeo takes place in the spectacular Frost Bank Center for 18 days, when the NBA Championship Spurs basketball team head off for their “Rodeo Road Trip” and dirt moves on to the floor. Over 17,000 fans are treated to unrivaled rodeo action that concludes with entertainment by some of the best names in the music industry. With one of the largest regular season prize payouts in the PRCA and the best bucking stock available, you are sure to see the best cowboys and cowgirls in the world.

Shop ‘til you drop at the Shops at the Rodeo. 250 themed booths are filled with unique merchandise in climate controlled venues. Enjoy live music on multiple stages and an open air food court featuring healthy and fun fair food. Explore agricultural learning centers, exhibits and attractions. Partake in product sampling, the carnival, pony rides and petting zoos. 

Over 70,000 animals will parade in and out of the 18-day event for livestock and horse shows, Ag Festival Fairgrounds  and Rodeo; with many destined to compete in the largest Junior Livestock Show in the world. Buyers and exhibitors travel from across North America for the opportunity to show their animals and bid in the Junior Livestock Auction.  

To top it off, did you know the San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo is a non-profit organization? That means the money you spend helps educate the youth of Texas. In 2023, $12.5 million has been committed through scholarships, grants, endowments, auction programs, and show premiums. The hidden jewel of the Rodeo is that it relies on more than 6,000 dedicated volunteers – whose three core values are integrity, caring and excellence, to make it all happen.
