Las Vegas, NV (KXNT) - Las Vegas has been adding so many sporting events and new teams over the past few years that it seems odd when we lose one, and that happened on Monday.

The official announcement is scheduled to come on Tuesday, but the Professional Bull Riders will be moving their World Finals event from Las Vegas to Texas starting in 2022. The event had been held in Las Vegas since 1994.

The PBR was held in Texas last year due to pandemic restrictions in Las Vegas. This year’s event will happen at the T-Mobile Arena November 3rd-7th.
