Media terms agreements will be worked out individually for the top 60 rodeos, and other flagship events.
Adjustments to the Hometown Rodeo livestream schedule may occur during the rodeo season. Rodeos interested in livestreaming who are not on the list may be considered on standby. Standby rodeos are not guaranteed a streaming slot for 2025. Rodeos may not livestream or broadcast their rodeo outside of the Cowboy Channel, Cowgirl Channel or CowboyChannelPlus.com.
Reach out to Amy Fast, [email protected], or Kevin Kersey, [email protected] if you have questions. Please be mindful that PRCA’s staff departs for Convention and the NFR in the coming days so response times to your e-mails may be longer than during the regular season.
