Goatham 2026: The Great Goat Graze-Off

The one and only invasive-plant-eating contest amongst goats!
Riverside Park’s goats will be baaaaaaaack for their seventh year and they are hungrier than ever! This summer, we are excited to welcome three tenacious, invasive plant-eating goats to face off in New York City’s most anticipated competitive eating event, “The Great Goat Graze-Off,” to be held on in West Harlem on the lawn north of Ten Mile Playground, at West 151st Street and the West Side Highway.
The festivities will be overseen by George Shea of Major League Eating, best known for hosting Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest. A historic milestone, “The Great Goat Graze-Off” is currently the ONLY professional eating competition between goats.
