Pow Wow Calendar Newsletter Edition

This newsletter is sent out on the 1st and 15th of the month (or around those days) and includes all the Pow Wows from our calendar for the next 3 months.

I’m in Florida this week, and let me tell you… it is NOT the Sunshine State right now. 😅

This morning it was 35 degrees outside. I was standing there waiting for my ride absolutely freezing. It’s nice not having that oppressive summer heat, but this might be a little too cold for me in Florida.

I’m down here for PodFest, and I’m speaking later today about how to use a newsletter to grow your community and your podcast.

Quick question for you: do you listen to podcasts?

What are your favorite shows right now?

Also, we’ve got something fun coming up on the next episode of The Pow Wow Life Podcast. I got to see an early screening of the new movie Mercy, and last night I got to interview Kali Reis. She’s Wampanoag and one of the co-stars alongside Chris Pratt. I’ll be sharing more about the movie and the interview very soon.

Alright, now let’s talk about the 2026 Pow Wow Calendar.

Below are all the pow wows we currently have listed for the next 3 months, but keep in mind… a lot of pow wows still haven’t posted their 2026 details yet, so make sure you keep checking back as events update and new ones are added.

And if you want to browse pow wows by state and province for the full year:

2026 - We are celebrating 30 years of PowWows.com!

I’m planning a big 30th celebration this summer, running through June, July, and August. I’m going bigger than I ever have before, and I’m going to share the whole journey as I build it.

​Learn more about our 30th Celebration!​

One of the things I’m most excited about is that I’m using this celebration to highlight Native companies. I’m reaching out to brands, working with partners, and putting the spotlight on Native-owned businesses and creators all summer long.

And if you want to be the first to know when new announcements go live join the waitlist!

Below, you’ll find a list of upcoming Pow Wows over the next three months, organized by region.

This isn’t every single Pow Wow coming up, just a sample to help you start planning. For the full list (and updates added daily), visit: www.powwows.com/calendar.
