DUO CACIB Kielce 2026: international competition and celebration of dog aficionados

At the end of November, Targi Kielce will again become one of the most important points on the map of European cynology. On 28–29 November 2026 is the time for DUO CACIB Kielce – the International Pedigree Dog Exhibition, an event of international importance that attracts breeders, exhibitors and dog lovers from Poland and abroad, but also all those who simply love four-legged friends.

CACIB shows are among the most important events in the FCI calendar, serving as a key step toward earning international champion titles. This year's Kielce show promises to be an impressive overview of breeds – from small companion dogs, through energetic utility breeds, to powerful molossers and primitive breeds. This event provides a rare opportunity to see such a diverse world of dogs in one place – both well-known breeds and extremely rare ones that are rarely encountered on a daily basis.

The rings will feature both titled champions and young dogs beginning their exhibition careers. For the audience, it is more than a competition, but a true spectacle – full of elegance, emotion and tension that grows with each judge’s verdict.

The event’s focal point is the main ring in Expo Hall 5, where the Best in Show finals and special shows will take place;  this is where emotions reach their peak. The best dogs compete for the highest titles, and the audience can watch them up close. The agenda will also feature spectacular presentations, such as the popular Sabat Łysa Góra Show, which attracts a wide audience every year and adds a unique atmosphere to the event.

DUO CACIB Kielce is also a meeting space – for the cynological community, families with children, and anyone who wants to spend time surrounded by dogs. This event combines professional breeding evaluation with an atmosphere of passion and joy.

At the same time, the ZOO Salon – Pet Supplies and Accessories Exhibition will be held, where visitors will find a wide range of products for their pets – from food and treats to accessories, care solutions, and equipment.

DUO CACIB Kielce remains one of the most important cynological events in Poland – but for many visitors it is simply two days full of dogs, emotions and good energy.
