The pageant is more than a competition—it’s an opportunity for young women to gain one of the most rewarding experiences of their lives. Contestants build lifelong friendships, open doors to future careers, and become part of a proud legacy. The young woman crowned Miss Rodeo America steps into history, representing yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
About the Miss Rodeo America Organization

The Miss Rodeo America Organization exists to select a young woman to serve as an official spokesperson for the sport of professional rodeo while also providing educational opportunities for the competitors who take part in the pageant.
Miss Rodeo America will travel more than 100,000 miles during her reign, attending close to 100 rodeo performances and making appearances at schools, civic groups, and community events. Along the way, she helps educate the public and promote awareness of the sport of rodeo, its sponsors, and its traditions.
Talented, articulate, and professional, Miss Rodeo America serves as the ideal ambassador for the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA). She represents America’s original professional sport and also works as a model and spokesperson at promotional events, media appearances, and in advertising campaigns for western brands, sponsors, and industry partners.

Dream Asia Food Fest Las Vegas
2026-02-14 - 2026-02-16 | Downtown Las Vegas Events Center, 200 S 3rd St,, Las Vegas, 89101
Dream Asia Food Fest is a two-day food and culture event built around one simple idea: try a lot of different things without blowing your budget.
More than 90 food vendors represent East Asia, Southeast Asia, South Asia, Central Asia, and modern Asian fusion. The format is small plates, with many options priced under $6, so you can walk the event and sample across regions instead of committing to one dish.
If you’ve ever wanted to try Korean street food, Japanese snacks, Filipino barbecue, Thai desserts, Indian bites, or trending fusion concepts — this is the kind of event where you can do all of it in one afternoon.

What You’ll Find Beyond the Food
Cultural BazaarOver 80 vendors selling everything from traditional crafts and handmade goods to modern Asian-inspired products and collectibles. It feels more like a night market than a typical food festival.
Workshops & Hands-On ActivitiesAttendees can participate in activities like Chinese calligraphy, lantern-making, tea ceremonies, and other cultural experiences designed for all ages.
Seasonal CelebrationsThe event typically aligns with Lunar New Year festivities and Valentine’s weekend, so expect themed performances, decorations, and interactive elements tied to the holiday.
Live PerformancesMusic, dance, and cultural showcases run throughout the weekend, giving the event energy beyond just the food lines.
