🍼Reminder: To be eligible, your child must be 24 months old or younger as of August 1, 2026.

People’s Choice is totally free to enter. Voting will be online and at Lulu’s from July 1 to August 1, so get ready to see those baby cheeks. https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/2026-brattie-baby-showcase-peoples-choice

Judge’s Choice is just $5 to enter and kind of like a mini baby pageant... minus the pageant drama. Babies go on stage with a grown-up, but we keep it sweet and simple. No makeup, no pageant outfits, just your adorable little festival baby doing their thing. Think bows, brat gear, maybe a little bratwurst-themed onesie? We love it all. https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/2026-brattie-baby-showcase

Deadlines:
People’s Choice – August 1, 2026
Judge’s Choice – June 24, 2026

Let’s bring the cute this festival season. Who knows? Your kiddo might just be the face everyone votes for!
