Rascal Flatts and Thomas Rhett bring three country nights to the Colosseum during NFR week

Published August 8, 2026

If you are heading to Las Vegas for rodeo season, the Strip just handed you three big country nights. The Colosseum at Caesars Palace has booked Rascal Flatts and Thomas Rhett across the same December stretch as the National Finals Rodeo. Both engagements are on sale now, so you can lock in seats today. Here is who plays when, and how these shows line up with your rodeo-week plans just off the Strip.

Three headliner nights, all on sale now

Rascal Flatts open the run with a single night at the Colosseum on December 5, 2026, at 8 p.m. Those tickets went on sale to the public on July 10, 2026, so they have been available for weeks. Thomas Rhett follows with a two-night stand at the same venue on December 10 and 12, 2026, announced July 20, 2026. That gives you three country headliner nights inside one room across the first two weeks of December. The takeaway for planning is simple: both acts are already on sale, so you do not have to wait on an announcement or a presale window. If you want a marquee country night wrapped around your trip, you can browse Las Vegas country shows and set your dates before rooms and seats tighten for the busy stretch.

More country and casino stages that week

These Colosseum dates are the headline, but they are not your only option during rodeo week. December is one of the deepest months on the Strip for live music, and Caesars Palace sits within walking distance of several other resort showrooms. If Rascal Flatts or Thomas Rhett sell through the nights you want, you can still build a country-heavy itinerary from residencies, tribute productions, and touring acts playing across the corridor. Many of the concerts at Las Vegas casinos that week run in intimate theaters where you are close to the stage, a different feel from a rodeo arena. Mixing a headliner night with a smaller room gives your group range without leaving the neighborhood.

What this means for your Vegas trip

The National Finals Rodeo runs December 3 to 12, 2026, at the Thomas and Mack Center, and these Strip concerts slot neatly into that window. Rascal Flatts on December 5 fits an early-week arrival; Thomas Rhett on December 10 and 12 works for a longer stay or a second-weekend push. Because the Colosseum sits on the Strip and the arena is a short ride away, you can catch afternoon rodeo rounds and still make an 8 p.m. curtain. Pin down your show nights first, then map hotels and dinners around them. Start with what to see in Las Vegas this December so the rest of your itinerary falls into place.
