National Hot Dog Month Planning Guide

From the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council

July is National Hot Dog Month

We hope that you’ll join in the celebration of one of America’s favorite foods. Because the hot dog is such a vibrant part of Americana, Hot Dog Month is celebrated in the same month that America celebrates her independence.

In the planning guide below you’ll find information about the history of the hot dog, how to celebrate National Hot Dog Month (July) or National Hot Dog Day (Wednesday, July 17) in your town and how to generate interest in hot dogs among the community. Join us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/NHDSC for updates throughout Hot Dog Month and the rest of the year.
