On Sunday, August 9, 2026, our Bikini Car & Dog Wash Benefit returns for its 20th year, celebrating two decades of Portland dancers raising money for charity.
Hosted by Devils Point and Lucky Devil Lounge, the annual fundraiser has become a long-running summer tradition, bringing together dancers, customers, car lovers, dog owners, and neighbors for a charity event unlike anything else in the city.
Over the past 20 years, the event has raised and donated more than $50,000 to local no-kill animal shelters and nonprofit organizations throughout the Portland area.
What started as a simple summer fundraiser has grown into one of Portland’s most recognizable charity events, featuring bikini-clad entertainers washing cars, dogs, and just about anything else while supporting good causes in the community.
This year’s event will benefit ARRAY Crisis Fostering, which provides temporary care for pets whose owners are experiencing homelessness, domestic violence, addiction, medical emergencies, and other difficult situations.
We’ll be washing dogs, cars, motorcycles, bicycles, unicycles, skateboards, sports cars, Power Wagons, lowriders, and whatever else you bring us. If it can get wet, we’ll probably wash it, while wearing bikinis, of course.
Outdoor music will be provided by DJs Phoenix and Fogues, featuring entertainers from Devils Point and Lucky Devil Lounge.
All car and dog wash donations will benefit ARRAY Crisis Fostering.
Suggested Donations

Can’t see a way to attach a photo of my very happy dogs at today’s event, but thanks for all the love! It would be great to see how much was earned.
