The Garfield County Frontier Fairgrounds, near Burwell, Nebraska, also known as Burwell Rodeo Ground, is a historic property with significance dating to 1922. A 40-acre (16 ha) area was listed as a historic district on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1985. The listing included 13 contributing buildings and seven other contributing structures.

By the mid-1980s, it was Nebraska's oldest rodeo venue in which the original buildings were still being used for their original purposes.
