The IBC actively promotes the selective breeding of various color and finnage strains of Bettas through our sanctioned show program.  At these shows, Bettas are exhibited and judged in pre-defined classes set by the IBC Judging Board.

Competition at these shows is enthusiastic as members compete for annual awards in each class and overall competition. The culmination of most IBC shows is an auction where fine breeding stock can be obtained. Be sure to check the event schedule to see if there is a show scheduled in your area.

Shows are held by local chapters which are groups of Betta hobbyists in an area. Check the chapters listing for a local chapter in your area.
