Tuesday is ‘Free Admission Day’ at the National Western Stock Show

Jan 12, 2026, 3:35 PM | Updated: 3:36 pm

The National Western Stock Show is the “Best 16 Days in January,” but there is one of those days that might be a little better than the rest, at least financially!

The Stock Show will have its Free Grounds Admission Day tomorrow, Tuesday, Jan. 13th.

The free admission applies to everything that’s not a separately ticketed event, like the Pro Rodeos or PBR events in the Denver Coliseum.

If you’re unable to go on Tuesday the 13, you can purchase tickets here. The cost of the tickets depends on the day of the week:

    • $5 – $37 for adults 12+
    • $2 -$9 for children 3-11
    • Free for children 2 and under
