The Yellowstone Classic Jackpot Show is a junior cattle show (ages 21 and under) held at Miller’s Horse Palace in Billings, MT. A longtime exhibitor favorite, NILE is now hosting the show. The show includes classes for Top of the Crop futurities, NILE Club Calf futurities, NILE Merit Heifers, showmanship, and open jackpot classes. With over $5,000 in premiums and prizes it’s a show that youth from across the region plan to attend each year! 

Mark your calendars for Sunday, June 21, 2026! Check back in spring 2026 for the entry form!
