What's all the
hub-bub you ask? A 5 show, one location format is a win win for
all involved, one CVI, one trip off the farm, one drive to the
show, one hotel room, one set of meals, one set of stalls, one
sponsorship - but 5 shows! All you have to do to get the 5 show
experience is pay the animal entry for the additional shows,
that's it. So for just $50 per show you get a different judge's
opinion, all without the additional time, expense, & travel (See
above to view the class options for each show).
We are especially pumped to be returning to the Iowa State
Fairgrounds. This location will supply us with a facility
that is just spectacular in every way! It is a true
livestock facility, with a wide open layout allowing us to put
everything under one roof! Our goal is to make this the
greatest show and the absolute place to be in October!!!! We
will run just 3 halter shows, 1 each day. This Mega show
format is tried and true at this point but if it is new to you
and you have some questions please do not hesitate to ask.
Of course if you do not want to enter all 5 events you do not
have to; feel free to sign up for whatever events you feel will
fill your weekend perfectly. No matter what we are 100%
committed to making this the most exciting show in history we
will be bringing, as always, professionalism and expertise.
All 5 shows are AOA Certified
Halter Shows using the 50/50 judging criteria. They will be
facilitated in accordance with the current 2026 AOA show
division rules. The Iowa shows are preparing for their 13th year
in 2026 at the Iowa State Fairgrounds under the direction of
Alpaca Show Management Services which is a blending of show
coordinator veterans Ann and Scott Young who together
have run Alpaca Shows across the country.
