National Rodeo Hall of Fame

Established in 1955 and located within the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum, the National Rodeo Hall of Fame is the original, preeminent and most iconic location for honoring, celebrating and preserving the heritage and the legendary names of the West’s original sport: Rodeo. Regardless of an individual’s background, professional affiliation or chosen event, induction in the National Rodeo Hall of Fame remains the highest honor to which a rodeo participant can endeavor. Each National Rodeo Hall of Fame class is chosen via popular vote by the members of the National Rodeo Hall of Fame Advisory Board, a long-standing support organization of The Cowboy.
