The search is on for our 2025 MOTOBLOT Pin-up Queen!

$1,000 grand prize!

We look forward to celebrating the women who achieved so much through pin-up and those that continue to use it as a relevant platform today. Although this is a competitive platform, our contest offers you more than just a chance to win our grand prize.

All contestants that advance to the on-site contest portion (June 28, 2025 in Chicago) will receive:

• Participation in a Friday evening meet-n-greet and Sunday’s Hot Rod Takeover
• Promotion of Motoblot social media platforms
• Free VIP admission for the weekend of activities
• Time with our dedicated photographer during the event
• Inclusion in our post event highlights
• AND, the chance to win the $1,000 grand prize!

Accepted contestants will participate in an online promotional period held before the event that will contribute to overall scoring. This will be combined with our on-site judges tallies during the day of competition to determine our winner.

Submission Round

Submission period will open March 1, and close May 30 or when we have advanced all applicants to the on-site competition (whichever comes first).

Applicants will be notified by email of acceptance by the deadline, or be guided what to resubmit within 72 hours.

Our event team will make an assessment based on the criteria: 

• Completeness and accuracy of the application, including acceptance of the terms & conditions.
• Ability to be onsite June 28^th for the competition.
• Quality of the photographs (posing, style, professionalism) and resolution.

Online Promotion

Although there is no pre-event voting, we will encourage you to share your promo image provided after advancement promoting your participation in the MOTOBLOT Pin-up Contest.

Sharing of your photo and that you will be appearing at MOTOBLOT helps us reach new audiences, and will give your onsite score a boost!

Make sure to tag @MOTOBLOT and @motoblot_pinup_contest and use #Motoblot #MotoblotPinup2025 in your social media posts to help us see your online engagement.

On-Site Round

The day of the competition is a very exciting one! MOTOBLOT judges (to be announced) will be employed at each onstage round as well as observing the contestants throughout the day.

The exclusive responsibility of determining a winner will solely rest with on-site judges, ensuring a thorough evaluation of each participant’s performance.

Combined with the pre-event promotional boost, this approach aims to uphold the integrity of the competition and provide a level playing field for all contestants.

The onstage contest appearances include:

1. The Pin-up Introduction Showcase: All contestants will be introduced and information from their profile shared. 
2. Q&A: The top 5 will be announced. These advancing contestants will then be given 30 seconds to answer 1 of 3 questions provided in advance.
3. Crowning: The 2025 MOTOBLOT Pin-up Contest Winner will be announced before our headliner.
