PRCA Votes to Move Headquarters and Hall of Fame From Colorado Springs to Cheyenne

Wyoming funding approval remains the key step before an anticipated early‑2029 move.

Overview

  • The board approved relocation to a new Cheyenne campus that PRCA describes as a strategic fit with rodeo culture and visibility.
  • The proposed site sits near I‑25 and I‑80, with Cheyenne offering to build a Hall of Fame, a museum and an administrative facility.
  • PRCA says the plan depends on Wyoming legislative funding, while Cheyenne LEADS has committed $15 million in matching funds.
  • Leaders in Colorado Springs said they offered incentives and a privately funded campaign to refurbish the Hall of Fame, and they pledged support for affected employees.
  • PRCA officials referenced a memorandum of understanding and outlined next steps to secure land and financing, with Colorado Springs set to host the NFR Open through at least 2031.
