We are once again looking to crown our Chieftains Court for the 2026 Celtic Calling Festival.
Contestants should dress in their best attire showing off their favorite Celtic look to compete for prizes, fame, and bragging rights!
After the judges and crowd have chosen their favorites, the winners will be crowned and shamelessly displayed through the festival and featured in our parade.
The judging will begin at 2pm on the center stage at Slack plaza.
Sign ups begin at the start of our festival day at the information tent and end at the 2pm call to gather on the stage.
Any Celtic dress , creature, or folk lore is accepted.
The Lad and Lassie category is open to all children under the age of 12.
Winners will walk in the Celtic Calling Parade on Saturday afternoon at 4 p.m. wearing their crowns, and have reserved seats at the FOOTMAD The Jeremiah’s Concert at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday evening.
Winners Prize Packages include:
$100 Cash Prizes for Chieftain, Chieftainess, Folk Lore Creature and additional swag, crowns, FOOTMAD Tickets, gift cards, t-shirts.

This is always a lot of fun.
