The Infield Party Zone, presented by StubHub, puts fans steps from $3 million worth of competition — plus Midland and Chris Young live at Globe Life Field.
StubHub is heading to Arlington. The American Rodeo has named StubHub the presenting sponsor of the Infield Party Zone and the Official Secondary Ticketing Provider for Championship Weekend, taking place May 22–23 at Globe Life Field.
The placement is intentional. The Infield Party Zone sits directly on the arena floor — as close to the action as fans can get without a rope in hand. StubHub’s name is on the space where the energy is highest, right alongside some of the best athletes in Western sports competing for more than $3 million in prize money.
On the floor, all weekend
The Infield Party Zone, presented by StubHub runs both days, with a live DJ, immersive activations, and a front-row feel for every ride, run, and rope throw. Friday night, Midland takes the stage. Saturday, Chris Young closes it out. Two nights of live country music, arena floor access, and the highest-stakes rodeo of the year happening just feet away.
This is StubHub in its element: at the intersection of sport, music, and the kind of live experience that doesn’t translate to a screen.
What’s on the line
Championship Weekend is the 13th edition of The American Rodeo, and this year carries extra weight. The $2 million bonus — which has rolled over and grown for years — pays out for the last time under its current format. Qualifiers across all eight disciplines go head-to-head against the sport’s reigning champions, including eight-time World Champion Stetson Wright, 2025 Bareback World Champion Rocker Steiner, two-time Barrel Racing World Champion Kassie Mowry, three-time Tie-Down Roping World Champion Riley Webb, and 2024 Bull Riding World Champion Ky Hamilton. Beat a champion, take home a piece of that bonus. The stakes are real.
