Resorts World Theatre will host Dwight Yoakam, Gary Allan and Chris Young during Wrangler National Finals Rodeo week, with performances scheduled December 3–5 ahead of Riley Green’s “Cowboy As It Gets Tour” dates later that week.
Resorts World Las Vegas is bringing a trio of major country music acts to the Strip this December, with Dwight Yoakam, Gary Allan and Chris Young each headlining Resorts World Theatre during Wrangler National Finals Rodeo week. The concerts are scheduled to run December 3–5, just before Riley Green’s “Cowboy As It Gets Tour” arrives at the same venue on December 6 and December 10.
Tickets for all three headliners go on sale Friday, September 4 at 10 a.m. Pacific Time, according to the resort. The series opens Thursday, December 3 with Grammy Award-winning Dwight Yoakam, who will perform songs from his influential catalog, including “Guitars, Cadillacs” and “Fast As You.”
Country Stars Take the Stage
Gary Allan follows on Friday, December 4, bringing his signature sound and platinum-certified hits such as “Every Storm (Runs Out of Rain)” to the 4,850-seat Resorts World Theatre. On Saturday, December 5, Chris Young—named one of Billboard’s top country artists of the decade—returns to the venue to perform fan favorites like “Gettin’ You Home” and “I’m Comin’ Over.”
The concerts are part of a busy NFR weekend in Las Vegas, with rodeo competition taking place at UNLV and a full slate of entertainment across the city. The schedule at Resorts World Theatre continues with Riley Green’s “Cowboy As It Gets Tour” shows on Sunday, December 6 and Thursday, December 10, adding to the week’s country music focus.

The NFR week lineup at Resorts World adds to a growing list of major entertainment events on the Strip, following a trend of high-profile performances at venues across Las Vegas.

What to Expect During NFR Week
With the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo drawing thousands of visitors to Las Vegas each December, Resorts World’s concert series is expected to attract both rodeo fans and country music enthusiasts. The Strip typically sees increased demand for entertainment, dining and accommodations during NFR, and the addition of Yoakam, Allan and Young to the schedule further cements Resorts World’s role as a key venue for live music during one of the city’s busiest weeks.
