Celebrating 65 years, the Ak-Sar-Ben Rodeo has had a long-standing tradition for being the largest indoor rodeo in Nebraska. Tracing its roots back to 1947, the rodeo has attracted many of the world's best rodeo cowboys and entertainers. The impressive list includes such legends as Roy Rogers, the Judds, Gene Autry, Brooks & Dunn, Reba McEntire and many more.

In 2003 the Ak-Sar-Ben Rodeo became host to the ProRodeo Summer Finale which has brought national exposure to Ak-Sar-Ben's River City Rodeo & Stock Show through national print publications and national television broadcasts.

Seven years later Ak-Sar-Ben's River City Rodeo & Stock Show has become the host to the Wrangler Million Dollar Tour Championships!
