{{Main article|Rabbit show}}
Showing rabbits is an increasingly popular activity. Showing rabbits helps to improve the vigor and physical behavior of each breed through competitive selection. [[County fair]]s are common venues through which rabbits are shown in the United States. Rabbit [[Club (organization)|club]]s at local state and national levels hold many shows each year.  Although only purebred animals are shown, a [[Pedigree (animal)|pedigree]] is not required to enter a rabbit in an ARBA-sanctioned show but is required to register the rabbit with ARBA. A rabbit must be registered in order to receive a Grand Champion certificate.<ref>{{Citation|title=Official Show Rules|year=2009|publisher=American Rabbit Breeders Association}}</ref> Children's clubs such as [[4-H|4{{nbh}}H]] also include rabbit shows, usually in conjunction with county fairs. The ARBA holds an annual national convention which has as many as 25,000 animals competing from all over the world. The mega show moves to a different city each year. The ARBA also sponsors youth programs for families as well as underprivileged rural and [[inner city]] children to learn responsible care and breeding of domestic rabbits.{{Citation needed|date=January 2021}}
