The official website of the event states that 'no clothes are tolerated at the pool.' Former porn star Ron Jeremy acted as emcee for Nudes-A-Poppin' from 1990 and personalities such as Home Improvement star Tim Allen, The Munsters star Al Lewis, and John Wayne Bobbitt have also hosted the event. By 2017 the anticipated number of attendees was around 6000, with the event drawing an international audience. Instead local porn stars, strippers, and nudists participate in the event, attracting thousands of other spectators. The members agree to the club hosting Nudes-A-Poppin' because it subsidizes their membership fees. The Ponderosa Sun Club is a family naturist resort and most of its members do not attend the festival. Spectators are allowed to take photographs but the use of video cameras requires a permit.

Photography is a popular activity at the pageant. The spectators perform as judges and consist mostly of men. Lou Harry, writing for Indianapolis Monthly, noted that the participants are prohibited from having sexual contact with another person attending the event or from performing explicitly. Various trophies are awarded to the nude contestants, with titles such as 'Miss Nude Galaxy', 'Miss Nude Go-Go', 'Miss Nude Up & Comer', 'Miss Nude Rising Star', 'Miss Nude Showstopper', 'Miss Nude North American' and 'Nude Couples Dance Contest'. A 'Miss Nude' contest judged by the audience is held here.
