About this Event
Woeber's Hot Mustard & Horseradish Eating Contest — MustardFEST 2026
Think you can handle the heat? MustardFEST is back at National Road Commons in downtown Springfield, OH on Saturday, September 12, 2026, and we're bringing back Springfield's spiciest tradition: the Woeber's Hot Mustard & Horseradish Eating Contest.
This isn't your average hot dog contest. Competitors will face down 8 hot dogs, each loaded with a progressively hotter Woeber's mustard — working up from Jalapeño, to Wasabi, to Sriracha, and finishing with 10X Hot Horseradish. First contestant to finish all 8 (buns included, no dunking) wins.
The Rules:
- 8 small hot dogs, each topped with Woeber's mustard
- Dogs must be eaten in order — least spicy to most spicy
- Hot dogs and buns must be fully consumed together (no separating, no dunking buns in water)
- First to finish all 8 is declared the winner, pending judges' review
The Stakes:
Only 24 spots available — this fills up fast, so lock in your entry early. The champion walks away with the coveted Mustard Belt and a cash prize. 🏆
Serious eaters only. Bring your appetite, bring your nerve, and find out if you've got what it takes to conquer the heat.
Entry Fee: $10 — includes your spot in the contest, a competition t-shirt and all 8 hot dogs.
Don't just watch MustardFEST 2026 — compete in it.
