Attendee Info
The Acton family and the Cattlemen’s Ball Board of Directors are excited to welcome you to the 2025 Cattlemen’s Ball of Nebraska this June! This year marks 27 years for the event and we appreciate your support of this worthy cause that has made an incredible impact on funding cancer research.
The event spans over two days for Trail Boss ticket holders and one day for Top Hand ticket holders. With more than 3,000 people in attendance, we wanted to share some important details and logistics to help you have an unforgettable experience at the Ball.
