CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? THIS IS OUR 10TH ANNIVERSARY! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? THIS IS OUR 10TH ANNIVERSARY! 
This summer marks 10 years of the World Dog Surfing Championships in Pacifica, California, and we couldn’t have done it without the incredible support of our fans, volunteers, sponsors, participants, and community.

Over the past decade, we’ve welcomed thousands of spectators, surf dogs from across the country, rescue organizations, families, media from around the world, and visitors who come to experience one of the most joyful and unique sporting events anywhere.

We have to admit—it hasn’t always been easy.

Each year, the costs of producing a safe, family-friendly, world-class event continue to rise. New operational requirements, permits, insurance, equipment, staffing, and event services have made organizing the Championships more challenging than ever.

As we prepare for our 10th Anniversary event on August 1st, several new expenses and requirements have recently surfaced, adding to the costs of bringing this beloved tradition to the beach once again.

That’s why we’re asking for your help.

If the World Dog Surfing Championships has ever made you smile, inspired you, introduced you to rescue dogs, brought your family together, or simply brightened your day, please consider supporting this year’s event through our GoFundMe:
https://www.gofundme.com/f/2026worlddogsurfingchampionships

Will there be an 11th Annual World Dog Surfing Championships in Pacifica? We honestly don’t know. We’ve been fortunate to receive invitations from many other communities that would love to host this internationally recognized event.
What we do know is that your support can help ensure that this year’s 10th Anniversary celebration is our best one yet.

Support the 2026 World Dog Surfing Championships Support the 2026 World Dog Surfing Championships

There are not many events in the world that can make thousands of strangers smile together on a beach. The World Dog Surfing Championships is one of them. In 2026, the World Dog Surfing Championships are returning to Pacifica — and with your help, we can make this the biggest and most exciting year yet. 

Every summer, thousands gather at Linda Mar Beach in Pacifica, California to celebrate one of the world’s most joyful and unique sporting events. Surfing dogs, costume contests, rescue organizations, family activities, and beachside fun create an unforgettable experience for attendees of all ages. 

The Championships have grown into an internationally recognized event covered by media around the world, while also benefiting local businesses and tourism, rescue dog organizations, community fundraising efforts, family-friendly public entertainment, and positive exposure for Pacifica and the Bay Area. 

But events like this do not happen on their own. Rising permit fees, insurance, staffing, safety requirements, beach operations, equipment, cleanup, and transportation costs continue to increase every year. 

This fundraiser will help support the future of the Championships while also improving the event experience with more activities for fans and dogs, additional rescue showcases, enhanced event amenities, expanded event video coverage and media production, and long-term sustainability for future Championships. 

Your support helps keep this one-of-a-kind tradition alive. Early donations help us confirm expanded plans and improvements for 2026. Thank you for supporting the dogs, the beach, and the community spirit that makes this event so special. Mahalo! 

Mark your calendars! The event will take place on August 1st at Linda Mar Beach, Pacifica, CA.
