This prestigious event showcases the best of North American livestock, attracting exhibitors from 47 states and Canada.
Over 25,000 livestock entries will compete for coveted purple and gold ribbons, and the excitement will culminate in the North American Championship Rodeo, featuring thrilling rodeo events like bucking broncos and barrel racing.
This year, NAILE introduces a new addition: the Hitching Post tent, a vibrant hub of food, music, and entertainment. Located outside the K Lot and West Wing Pavilion, the tent will be open from November 13th to 19th, offering delicious Kentucky Proud food and live performances by talented local musicians.
Beyond the livestock shows and rodeo, NAILE offers a variety of other attractions, including the Saddle & Sirloin Club Portrait Gallery Induction, where a new member's portrait will be unveiled.
The North American Country Store, located in the North Wing, is a shopper's paradise, featuring western wear, show supplies, jewelry, and more.
Additionally, young livestock enthusiasts can participate in educational contests, showcasing their knowledge and skills in various disciplines.
