Saddle Up for Summer: American Classics Await in Lincoln

More than 1,700 student athletes compete in traditional rodeo events at the week-long National High School Finals Rodeo and explore the region's largest Western trade show.

  • On Monday, March 23, 2026, more than 1,700 student athletes will travel to Lincoln for the seven-day National High School Finals Rodeo at the Sandhills Global Event Center.
  • Organizers say Lincoln was chosen because its athlete- and fan-focused facilities and central location make it ideal, with over 5,000 hotel rooms, nearby camping, and more than 900 restaurants for accessibility.
  • The region's Western trade show runs alongside the rodeo and is open to shoppers without a ticket, while the world's largest gathering of rodeo queens competes for one crown.
  • Likely returning champions will defend their titles, and visitors are encouraged to plan trips at nhsfrlincoln.org amid outdoor options like the Pioneers Park 2.6-mile bridle path.
  • Among must-see museums are the International Quilt Museum and the Speedway Motors Museum of American Speed, while Historic Downtown and the Nebraska capitol offer cultural and shopping options.
