LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The stage is set for an epic showdown as the PBR Unleash The Beast charges into the Bluegrass State for the highly anticipated Cooper Tires PBR Louisville, presented by Pneu-Dart April 26-27 at the KFC Yum! Center.

Marking the final regular-season event of the 2024 campaign, Louisville promises to be a pressure-packed battleground where the world's top bull riders will leave it all in the arena in their quest for crucial points and a last-chance surge up the standings.

Fresh off a historic double-header event in Washington state that saw veteran Alan de Souza pull off a rare back-to-back sweep, the competition in Louisville is set to reach a boiling point. With red-hot riders like Dalton Kasel and Eduardo Aparecido nipping at his heels and looking to make a statement, world No. 1 Cassio Dias will have to dig deep and fend off the hungry challengers if he hopes to maintain his grip on the top spot heading into the PBR World Finals in Fort Worth, and Arlington, Texas.
