Welcome to the 2011 North American Llama and Alpaca Show Site.

November 4-6, 2011 - 20th ANNIVERSARY

The Kentucky Llama and Alpaca Association is proud to be celebrating the 20th anniversary as a part of the North American Livestock Exposition (NAILE) which is the world's largest purebred livestock show! The event is held at the Kentucky Fair and Exposition Center, Louisville, KY which you will find to be one of the finest in the country. The 2010 NAILE’s llama show was one of the largest if not the largest llama show in the country for 2010. NAILE is more than a llama and alpaca show. It has a variety of species of livestock exhibited over a 2-week period. Along with the livestock, the east wing is full of vendors of all kinds for your shopping pleasure. It’s a can’t miss event!

We again will have a DUAL SANCTIONED ILR-SD & ALSA SANCTIONED SINGLE LLAMA SHOW and a OPEN ALPACA SHOW. There will be an ILR-SD halter show one day and an ALSA halter show the opposite day. A continuous performance ring will run in a second ring concurrently with the halter show. Both sanctioned performance classes will run together. Saturday will be the Open Alpaca Halter Show. Alpaca performance runs both Saturday and Sunday.
