A Fourth of July tradition returns for fans celebrating the day. Fans have several ways to get involved in the 2026 Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest.

Sportsbooks such as DraftKings, FanDuel, Caesars Sportsbook, and bet365 offer odds on different markets. Prediction market platforms such as Kalshi and Polymarket get in on the action.

The 17-time champion, Joey Chestnut, returns looking for his 18th Nathan's title. Chestnut owns the event record with 76 hot dogs consumed in 10 minutes. On the women's side, Miki Sudo is the overwhelming favorite as she chases her 12th Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest championship.

The odds heavily back the champions to win another title this year. Will there be any contestants who come close to defeating the champions?

Whether you're betting on Chestnut to continue his dynasty, backing the field to pull off a monumental upset, or looking at player props and over/under markets, DraftKings, FanDuel, Caesars Sportsbook, and bet365 are among the top places to wager on one of America's most iconic Fourth of July traditions.
