About this event
Wrapping up summertime with fun and excitement for the entire family, the North Texas Fair & Rodeo (NTFR) brings delicious fair food, carnival rides, exceptional vendors, live music and intense rodeo action to Denton, Texas every August. The 97th annual NTFR will take place August 15-24, 2025.
Nightly rodeos start at 7:30 p.m. followed by some of the hottest country music! Shane Smith and The Saints will kick off the event on the Miller Lite Main Stage Friday, August 15, and the fun will continue with headlining performances by Sawyer Brown, Chancey Williams, Jake Hooker and The Outsiders, Kody West, The Wilder Blue, Ian Munsick, Randall King, Uncle Kracker, and Los Pescadores Del Rio Conchos.
Every August, NTFR consistently brings exceptional country music to the north Texas region. Nevertheless, with a rapidly growing association built on several generations of memberships and volunteers, NTFR strives to place family fun and tradition at the forefront of everything it does.

The NTFR contributes around $500,000 each year to area youth. According to the Center of Economic Development at the University of North Texas, the NTFR and its facilities have a $7 million economic impact in Denton County and an approximately $4 million impact on the City of Denton.
