This year we’ll be crowning a Bluegrass PugFest 2026 King and Queen as well as a Prince and Princess and a Duke and Duchess! It’s free to enter your Pug – simply submit a high-quality photo on this site (be sure it’s high quality and super cute)! We’ll begin voting on the photos on 04/01/2026 and voting will run until 9:00 PM (Eastern Time) on Thursday, April 30, 2026. The Pugs with the most votes will win (votes are $1.00 each). Proceeds from this event will help pay medical bills for rescued Pugs.
Prizes
Most importantly, winners will have the claim to fame of being PugFest Royalty!
Winners will also “walk the red carpet” at PugFest on Saturday May 16th and Sunday May 17th and celebrate their fame.
In addition, we’ll feature the winners on an event banner!
Winners will also receive a goodie bag with neat treats and more.
