Welcome to the Kennel Club of Palm Springs website!

The Kennel Club of Palm Springs is very proud of our annual AKC Licensed All Breed Dog Shows, held the first weekend in January at the Empire Polo Grounds in Indio, California. This prestigious show is considered the opening event of the dog show year.  There are four days of conformation shows as well as Obedience and Rally competitions throughout the weekend.  The event also offers a great selection of vendors, food concessions, CGC testing, temperament and trick dog evaluations and much, much more.

A note from our Show Chair:

It’s that time of year to start thinking about and making plans for our fabulous Palm Springs Shows, to be held January 2-5, 2025. 

My name is Angela Stevanus, and I am the Show Chair for this fantastic event. I am a KCPS member and have been involved with the Palm Springs shows for many years.

I have been showing dogs and participating in organizing club events for over 25 years and as part of the Specialty Committee, I look forward to working with all of you at our 2025 shows.

Once again, our show location is the beautiful Empire Polo Grounds in Indio, California. Last year we had beautiful weather, and we are fortunate to be able to host all our Specialty Partners at a show site that many in the dog fancy have agreed is the finest outdoor show site in the United States. By being a part of our Shows, you can offer your exhibitors four days of shows with a chance of majors all days.  The perfect way to kick off the New Year!  


KCPS will again offer all covered grooming spaces that include electricity and lighting for your convenience and if you love shopping, we had over 25 Vendors on site.
