After a 2 year hiatus, IT’S BACK! One of the biggest events on our eating calendar, the Luna Park Hot Dog Eating Competition for 2022!
The crown jewel in the Australian competitive eating calendar, Luna Park’s 7th Annual Hot Dog Eating Competition returns on Saturday, 23rd July 2022 with new and updated format for both seasoned professionals and gutsy amateurs alike.
‘Mustard’ the courage, chew through the opposition and ‘snag’ the title of 2022’s ‘Weiner’.
Presented with the assistance of Primo Foods and Heinz ketchup and mustards, Melbourne’s original ‘Home of Fun’ Luna Park will once again play host to a challenge of most delicious proportions.
Under the watchful eye of Competitive Eating Australia’s ‘Top Dog’ Billy Boyd, Australia’s finest competitive eaters will do battle for a cash prize, coveted trophy, and an annual pass to come back and enjoy all the fun of Luna Park’s rides for 12 months… on an emptier stomach.
Get your buns into Luna Park early for the best seat in the house and witness impressive feats of gastronomic stamina as Australia’s best competitive eaters face off against each other with rivalries, pride, and their stomachs on the line.
