LAS VEGAS -- Although the competition will take place exclusively at the Thomas & Mack Center, the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo's economic impact will be felt by businesses throughout the Las Vegas Valley.
Now in its 18th run in Southern Nevada, this year's event, which runs through Dec. 15, is expected to sell nearly 99,000 room nights at local resorts while generating a nongaming economic impact of more than $34.6 million.
"The National Finals Rodeo is always a great event for boosting our December revenues and occupancy levels," said Erika Brandvik, spokeswoman for the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority. "It's probably the premier example of a special event that drives people to this city."
The authority is anticipating total ticket sales of 174,000 over the 10-day event, a slight increase compared with last year's 172,500 tickets sold. The rodeo is also projected to bring in 39,000 visitors compared with the nearly 38,600 visitors who took part a year ago, Brandvik said.
