Everything\u2019s bigger in Texas, and the Austin Gamblers<\/a> are proving just that! Bigger bulls, bigger thrills, bigger rides, and bigger action are all coming your way at the 2026 Austin Gambler Days.<\/p>\n

Austin Gambler Days<\/a>
August 21st-23rd
Moody Center
Austin, Texas<\/p>\n

PBR Camping World Team Series <\/p>\n

For those unfamiliar with the PBR Teams format, this unique and innovative setup reimagines traditional bull riding. Once a solo showdown between bull and rider, the sport now brings together the toughest athletes from around the world to compete as 10 teams in a head\u2011to\u2011head, contender\u2011style tournament where one team ultimately claims the championship. Each team fields five riders per match, with the highest combined score determining the winner.<\/p>\n

Throughout the season, every team hosts its own \u201cHomestead\u201d event, along with several additional events across the country. With five matches per event day, 175 total over the season, the action is nonstop. Everything culminates November 6th-8th at T\u2011Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, where teams battle through a bracket\u2011style championship to crown the season\u2019s best. But before the season takes us to Viva Las Vegas, we have an important pit stop in Austin, Texas.<\/p>\n

\"\" The Pressure is On! <\/p>\n

Currently sitting at #4 in the season standings, the Austin Gamblers are ready to bring the fun back home with the highly anticipated Austin Gambler Days. This year\u2019s roster is stacked with world\u2011class athletes, including Jose Vitor Leme, Dalton Kasel, Sage Steele Kimzey, Kaique Pacheco, Lucas Divino, Dener Barbosa, Callum Miller, Vinicius Pinheiro, and Jesse Petri. Now\u2019s the chance for Gambler fans to see their favorites compete on home turf as they face off against other PBR Teams throughout the three\u2011day event.<\/p>\n
