The top bull riders in the sport will return to the Reno Events Center on February 20–21, 2026, as the PBR (Professional Bull Riders) Pendleton Whisky Velocity Tour (PWVT) once again brings high-adrenaline action back to northern Nevada.

Fans can expect to be on the edge of their seats as 40 riders go head-to-head with some of the sport’s most powerful animal athletes – bred for explosive power and agility – in a true test of grit, strength, and skill.

In 2025, when the PWVT last visited Reno, an energized crowd packed the arena to watch Pokey Houghton (St. George, Utah) secure his first-ever PWVT event win after riding two of the three bulls he was matched against.

Determined athletes just like Houghton will take to the dirt on February 20 and 21, on the hunt for an event win and the crucial Velocity Global points needed to punch their ticket to the PWVT Finals in May 2026.
