LAS VEGAS, Nev. – Having become a second home to PBR (Professional Bull Riders) over the past 30 years, the entertainment capital of the world will continue to host the sport as its returns to T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on November 4 – 6 for the much-anticipated PBR Team Series Championship season finale alongside just announced weekend headliners WARRANT and Chancey Williams.
The highly anticipated championship tournament will be the culmination of the inaugural season of the PBR Team Series, an elite new league featuring the world’s top bull riders competing on eight teams in 5-on-5 bull riding games during a 10-event regular season which began in late July at the iconic Cheyenne Frontier Days. The series’ first champion will be crowned at T-Mobile Arena.
The three-day PBR Team Series Championship will begin on Nov. 4 and treat fans to a 10 p.m. post-show performance on the outdoor Toshiba Plaza stage by WARRANT on Friday night. Williams will take the stage following the Saturday evening event.
Quintessential multi-platinum-selling American rock band WARRANT has been headlining festivals, casinos, and fairs all over the country in support of their latest CD, Louder Harder Faster, as well as the 30-year anniversary of their debut album Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich. The fired-up rockers will be performing all the hits fans know and love as well as new tunes/videos like “Louder Harder Faster” and “I Think I Will Just Stay Here & Drink.”
Saddle Bronc athlete turned neo-traditional country music sensation Chancey Williams has gone from competing on horseback to performing on center stage. He is one of only two artists, joining Chris LeDoux, to both compete in the rodeo and perform on the main stage at Cheyenne Frontier Days.
Amidst a breakout year, Williams began 2022 by being named iHeartRadio’s 2022 Rocky Mountain Country Music Awards Entertainer of the Year. Williams also won Songwriter of the Year for “The Saint” and Album of the Year for 3rd Street, his most recent record produced with country hitmaker, Trent Willmon.

About the PBR (Professional Bull Riders) Team Series:
The PBR Team Series is an elite new league featuring the world’s top bull riders competing on teams in five-on-five bull riding games during an 11-event season that began in July and culminates in a team championship at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas November 4-6. During the 2022 season, each of the eight teams representing teams in Austin, TX; Fort Worth, TX; Glendale, AZ; Kansas City, MO; Nashville, TN; Oklahoma City, OK; Ridgedale, MO; and Winston-Salem, NC are hosting a three-day homestand. There were also neutral site games in Cheyenne, WY and Anaheim, CA. To determine team rosters, the league held a rider draft on May 23 prior to start of the 2022 season among any bull riders who have declared for the draft during a league eligibility window. The PBR Team Series builds on the existing structure of professional bull riding with the same basic rules for judging and scoring qualified 8-second bull rides. Events are staged in a tournament-style format with all teams competing in head-to-head matchups against a different opponent each day. Each game features five riders per team squaring off against another team. Full team rosters are comprised of seven riders on the core roster and three practice squad members. The team with the highest aggregate score of qualified rides among its riders is declared the winner of each game. The event winner is the team with the most game wins across an event, with a special bonus round designed as a tie-breaker to determine final event standings. All PBR Team Series events are carried on either the CBS Television Network, streaming live on Paramount+, CBS Sports Network, or RidePass on PlutoTV.
