After nearly two years of inactivity due to the pandemic, the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo made a triumphant, Texas-sized return this year to toast its 90th anniversary. RodeoHouston’s epic comeback saw a history-making hip-hop takeover — including SLABs on the rodeo floor — by our local legend Bub B, inspired shows by Gwen Stefani and Journey, and a fitting close by the King of Country.

While RodeoHouston 2022 will be hard to top, fans can now prepare for the next year’s iteration, as a limited number of 2023 season tickets go on sale at 10 am Tuesday, August 9. Season tickets will be available online and start at $500, with an eight-ticket purchase limit per household, according to a rodeo press release.

As CultureMap reported in April, next year’s rodeo runs February 28–March 19. These 2023 season tickets for sale include all 20 RodeoHouston performances. For those more interested in Individual tickets, those will go on sale once the 2023 star entertainer lineup is announced at a later date, per the rodeo.

For those purchasing season tickets on August 9, the rodeo advises that an online waiting room opens at 9:30 am; customers who join the waiting room from 9:30 am to 9:59 am will then be randomly selected to enter the store to purchase season tickets right at 10 am, according to the rodeo.

Importantly, per the rodeo, access to the online early waiting room does not put customers in a first-come, first-served line. Additionally, access to this waiting room does not guarantee season tickets.

All season tickets sold will be delivered electronically via AXS Mobile ID; those who purchase online should allow 48 hours for delivery. Customers can access their purchased tickets by downloading the AXS mobile app and logging in with the email they used to purchase tickets.

Here’s a quick breakdown of packages and options, per the rodeo. Buyers are advised to use this NRG Stadium seat map.

Hilary Duff will perform at The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory in Irving on June 30.

Pop singer Hilary Duff is mounting a comeback after many years away with The Lucky Me Tour in 2026, which will include a stop at The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in The Woodlands on Saturday, 27.

The tour will begin with a 28-city North American leg, starting on June 22 in West Palm Beach, Florida, and going through mid-August.

In addition to Houston, Duff will perform in Austin on June 28 and the Dallas suburb of Irving on June 30.

She'll add 19 more dates in Ireland, the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and Mexico after that, taking the tour all the way to February 2027.

The tour is in support of Luck… or something, her first new album in 11 years. It is Duff's first major tour since the Dignity Tour in 2007-2008. She'll be joined by special guests La Roux and Jade LeMac.

Duff officially ended her long musical hiatus in January with the cheekily-named Small Rooms, Big Nerves tour, featuring dates in London, Toronto, New York, and Los Angeles.

She will also play two three-night stretches in Las Vegas — February 13-15 and May 22-24 — to warm up for the main event this summer.

Duff first gained significant fame in the lead role on the Disney Channel series, Lizzie McGuire. She quickly transitioned into a music career, releasing three albums over three years in the early 2000s.

Luck… or something will be released on Friday, February 20, the same day that tickets for the tour go on sale to the general public.

Fans can also participate in the Hilary Duff Artist Presale on Wednesday, February 18 at 10 am by signing up at signup.ticketmaster.com/hilaryduff by Monday, February 16 at 5 pm.

For Artist Presales on Ticketmaster, no code is needed - access is tied to individual accounts. Artist Presales hosted on other sites may require a code for access.

There will also be presales through Citi Entertainment and Verizon prior to the general on-sale date.
