The Ultimate Roundup: Texas-Sized Fun at PBR Texas!
March 17, 2026 |  6:00 PM-9:00 pm CT

Buckle up and grab your boots for an unforgettable evening of networking, dinner, drinks, and authentic Texas entertainment at the country's largest Professional Bull Riders venue. 

PBR Texas at Texas Live! brings the "cowboy cool" with a massive 7,000 sq. ft. balcony, beer donkeys, and a live band to fuel your two-step dreams. The night wouldn't be complete without the venue's iconic mechanical bulls--because nothing says Texas quite like eight seconds that feel like forever. Come celebrate, connect, and have some true Texas-sized fun! 

PBR Texas is located directly inside the Texas Live! complex in Arlington, making it immediately adjacent/within the same entertainment district as Live! by Loews. They are within short walking distance, usually less than a 5-minute walk, as they are part of the same development.
