AKC Show Schedule Updated; Moving Forward Despite COVID
Review the Show Schedule page to see the shows currently planned. We hope things will improve soon and local counties will allow these shows, as we all need to show our birds and enjoy the gatherings safely!

The Grand National is still scheduled in Louisville, KY. See the details on the show page. California has two King shows in December. More details will be added as they're provided. Contact the local show coordinators for more detail.




National Young Bird Show 2020 Cancelled
On June 6, 2020, the Louisville Pigeon Club voted to cancel the National Young Bird Show scheduled for October 24, 2020. The 3rd District Young King Show would normally be held in conjunction with this venue. 

This decision was made due to the COVID-19 restrictions in place at the Kentucky State Fair and Exhibition Center and in consideration of the safety and health of exhibitors and visitors.

This would have been the 49th consecutive year for the National Young Bird Show.  The club hopes you will make plans to attend in 2021.
