About us

The Madison County Holiday Showdown was started by four Ohio families who wanted to create a show environment that focuses on kids and creates opportunities for kids to learn, develop their showring skills and have fun. 

 The Madison County Holiday Showdown began in 2016 as a compliment to another show sponsored by these families, The Memorial Day Classic.  

 The Madison County Holiday Showdown has steadily grown over the years. In its inaugural year (2016), participants exhibited 290 hogs. In 2017, the number grew to 350 hogs, in 2018 participants exhibited 450 head, in 2019 over 600 hogs were exhibited, and in 2020 we had almost 700 hogs exhibited.
