Nebraska Llama Association
NLA Shows
Every year the Nebraska Llama Association host several llama and alpaca shows. What happens in a llama show? Llama and alpaca shows are divided into three parts halter, showmanship, and performance. Halter classes judges the confirmation and correct gait of the animal. Showmanship is based on how the show person can show the animal to the best of its ability. Performance classes require the handler and animals to go through obstacle courses. Here is the list of llama and alpaca shows in Nebraska.
