Rhythm & Rawhide 2026
Benefiting the Reno Rodeo Foundation

DATE: Saturday, June 27, 2026
TIME: 11 am to 2 pm
LOCATION: Doc Bar at the Reno Rodeo

This year’s event takes on an entirely new format. Set inside the intimate and moody atmosphere of Doc Bar, guests will step into a speakeasy-style setting while enjoying an afternoon designed to delight the senses.

Rustic décor and vintage furnishings create inviting spaces for conversation and connection while guests enjoy an exceptional culinary experience prepared by local celebrity chef Mark Estee and the talented team at Local Food Group.

Throughout the afternoon, guests will enjoy a curated brunch menu featuring premium seafood, elevated brunch bites, decadent sweets, and interactive chef stations. A premium whiskey and champagne tasting experience will complement the brunch, offering guests the opportunity to explore exceptional pours throughout the afternoon.

Adding to the atmosphere is an intimate live performance by Nashville-recorded singer-songwriter Patrice Luciano, whose soulful country sound and Sierra-rooted performances have earned her a devoted regional following.

With attendance limited to just 150 guests, this year's Rhythm & Rawhide offers a rare opportunity to enjoy an elevated and intimate event during one of Reno’s most celebrated traditions — all while supporting the Reno Rodeo Foundation’s programs for children and families across Northern Nevada.

We invite you to be part of this unforgettable afternoon while helping us continue to make a meaningful difference for children and families across Northern Nevada.
