Here's a list of all PRCA events check on those in Texas.

If you are going to be in the Dallas area the Mesquite Rodeo is every weekend.

If you were going to be here the first of June, I would suggest come to our Cowboy Capital Rodeo.

Where will you be in Texas ? The state of Texas is larger than the whole country of France....

And no TGV to make getting around easy. You must have a car. The good news: fuel is under $2/gal. which is almost 4 liters. Think $0.50/liter.

Personally, I would look for small town rodeos. There may not be too many. 1 or 2 would be q lot of fun. They usually run from Friday to Sunday. 2 long weekends of rodeo would be a good thing. There is more to a small town rodeo than the riding & roping events. Parades, food, street parties, tons of fun!

Have fun!

Also, depending on where you are in Texas, the adjacent states (Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas and New Mexico) may be closer than a rodeo on the other side of the state.

Thank you very much for your advices. There are a lot of rodeos, it's very cool. :-)
I watch rodeos on tv, in France, and I dream to see rodeos in real ;-)
I went already to Texas last year, but not enough time to see a rodeo. I visited Bandera, Houston and Boerne, and after I visited others states.
I began to put some pictures on my website : http://www.fildefer.com
Don't hesitate to tell me what you think

There is a small rodeo between Seguin and San Antonio; I think it's in LaVernia, but I may be wrong.

Try Bandera, I believe the Twin Elm Ranch will have a rodeo weekly starting in May.

You can usually get a ticket when you get to the event. Rodeos are not expensive tickets. Have fun.

Hello!

I'm looking for information about Helldorado Days Rodeo, in Las Vegas. Is it a good rodeo? What kind of rodeo is it ?

Thank you for your advices!
