Teton Ridge announced a star-studded lineup for entertainment over the course of the weekend of April 11-12, 2025. All of the much anticipated events happen at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas.
On April 11 fans will be greeted with a kickoff celebration featuring Bailey Zimmerman who was a 2023 ACM Awards New Male Artist of the Year nominee. Bringing in an artist with his kind of stage energy is perfect for the opening night when the final "Contender" field will be determined.
Fans will continue to be entertained on April 12 when Riley Green takes the stage. Known for authentic Southern sound, his chart-topping hits and performance Green will be unforgettable. He will be joined by Ella Langley who will certainly wow the crowd with her soulful voice.
Together Green and Langley will be the closing act for a weekend that music and rodeo fans won't want to miss.
The American Rodeo Championship weekend will offer high-stakes rodeo action from competitors across the United States who have worked their way through the qualifying system to earn a chance to win $1 million.
Fans will be excited to see these "Contenders" match up against the proven best in the world to determine who will take home the championships.
In 2024, Teton Ridge produced a record breaking payout of $4.6 million, which made The American Rodeo one of the most lucrative events in the western world history.
In a press release from Teton Ridge, Deirdre Lester, CEO of Teton Ridge said, "The American Rodeo is where the grit of Western sports meets the energy of live music, and this year’s lineup is going to be truly special. Bailey Zimmerman, Riley Green, and Ella Langley represent the best of modern country, and we’re thrilled to bring that same spirit of authenticity and excitement to the heart of rodeo. Our goal is to create a weekend that’s unforgettable for fans, athletes, and music lovers alike, continuing to push the boundaries of what this event can be."
"The American Rodeo has been a tremendous event the past two years, and we are thrilled to continue our partnership with Teton Ridge as the event returns to Globe Life Field for a third consecutive year," said Sean Decker, President of REV Entertainment, the exclusive events partner of the Texas Rangers. "Bailey Zimmerman, Riley Green, and Ella Langley will continue a strong tradition of star-studded musical additions to the event, and will make for a memorable two nights for rodeo and country music fans at Globe Life Field next spring."
