Nathan’s Famous International Hot Dog Eating Contest has occurred every July 4
in Coney Island since 1916, the year Nathan Handwerker opened the legendary
restaurant. Major League Eating, the governing body of all stomach-centric
sports, sanctions the Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Circuit, ensuring the
contests are judged professionally and that safety standards are in place at
each event.
