The Annual Route 66 Gingerbread House Contest, Sponsored & Hosted by the Atlanta Public Museum during their Christmas in July event, will be held Saturday, June 21, 2025 – Sunday, June 29, 2025, with the entries remaining on display for visitors to view from June 30, 2025 – July 31, 2025.

Gingerbread Artists of all ages and backgrounds are invited to compete for more than $4500 in cash and prizes for their structures depicting Route 66. Although the title is the 2025 Official Route 66 Gingerbread House Contest, entries are NOT limited to house structures. This is a ROUTE 66 themed competition and anything Route 66 is allowed – if it is found along Route 66, then it can be an entry. However, entries are required to be tasteful in nature as the competition is sponsored by the Atlanta Public Museum, so entries should be viewable by all ages. A good rule of thumb is — if you have to ask if a particular design or idea is ok, it probably is not.

In addition to the categories of: Adult, Teen, and Youth divisions, there will be additional prizes for entries Furthest Traveled, Most Innovative, Best use of the Route 66 theme, and the People’s Choice Award, which will be awarded after the close of viewing on July 31, 2025.

Competition Information, Rules and Entry forms are available online at atlantamuseum.org
