The two 10-minute contests, one for men and one for women, will each only have five participants instead of the traditional 15 to abide by social distancing guidelines.
Workers will wear masks and gloves during the event, and the competitors will all be tested for coronavirus before being allowed to compete.
Last year's champions, Joey Chestnut and Miki Sudo, are both expected to compete in this year's event.
The event will be aired at noon July 4 on ESPN, the organizers said.
