The title of Powwow Princess is far more than a crown, it is a sacred honor, a symbol of leadership, and a commitment to representing our community with grace. 👑

As we prepare for the 33rd Annual Austin Powwow, our hearts are full of gratitude for our current princess, Daelena Tsonetokoy.

Daelena has carried the crown with beautiful dignity, serving as a powerful voice and ambassador for the Austin Powwow over the past year. 💛 While passing the torch is always a bittersweet moment, it is a vital tradition that ensures our youth continue to lead.

Our new 2026 Princess will be crowned at the end of the night on Saturday, November 21st, and will start her term before the Committee's special and the announcement of winners.

Make sure to join us at this year's powwow! Early Bird Tickets can be purchased for a discounted rate directly at austinpowwow.net. 🎟️

Did you know the Men’s Chicken Dance is one of the oldest traditional styles, originating from the Northern Plains?

It requires immense control, as dancers use precise footwork and sharp, bobbing head movements to bring the spirit of the prairie chicken to life.

Every piece of their detailed regalia tells a story, and every step connects past and present.

Experience the rhythm and power of the 33rd Annual Austin Powwow!✨

Saturday, November 21st | 9 AM - 9 PM

The Women’s Jingle Dress dance is a beautiful display of grace, rhythm, and healing. As hundreds of metal cones shimmer and sing in unison, the dancers move to the heartbeat of the drum, bringing a powerful energy to the arena floor.

When the drum stops, a striking silence falls over the room in an instant.

Experience this breathtaking tradition live at the Annual Austin Powwow!
