The Columbia Pacific Dahlia Show is hosted by the Columbia Pacific Heritage Museum in Ilwaco, Washington, on September 15th and 16th, 2023. This new event will be part contest, part show and will highlight dahlias, which have long been a bloom of choice of local gardeners.

Dahlia entries will be accepted Thursday, September 14th from 10-4 pm. Pre-registration is encouraged but not required. A form and more information can be found at CPHM’s website www.columbiapacificheritagemuseum.org or by stopping by the museum.

Participants can enter bouquets, arrangements, and single stems. If you grow many dahlias, participants can pre-register for a 6’ foot table to create their own display. Pre-registration for tables is encouraged as amounts are limited.

Prizes will be awarded in multiple categories in addition to “Best in Show” and “People’s Choice” awards.

Please call the museum Wednesday – Saturday 10 AM – 4 PM (360-642-3446) or email pr@cphm-ilwaco.org with any questions.
