Ready to return to one of the uniquely American annual events?
The 2026 Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest is set to kick off another Fourth of July celebration at Coney Island this year. Familiar faces like Joey Chestnut (who was recently name-dropped in “The Vampire Lestat”) are back looking for another win, while others look to unseat the hot dog king.
Here is how to watch the eating competition either on TV or through a streaming service. Kick off the patriotic weekend right.
As always, the annual Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest is held on the Fourth of July to celebrate the holiday.
The Fourth of July traditional hot dog eating contest starts at 10:45 a.m. ET for the Women’s competition and 12:30 p.m. ET for the Men’s competition.
