They are allowing mixed breeds into certain events, however not conformation showing. The point of conformation showing is to prove how closely a dog fits its breed standard and that it is breeding quality.
I believe AKC agility events and the obedience events are accepting mixes (but I could be wrong). You don't register the dog, you just find a class for either one of these in your area and then you find shows near you. Infodog.com is a good site to find shows.

Yes AKC has just announced a mixed breed program.
This program always mix breeds to compete in AKC Agility, Rally and Obedience events NOT confirmation.
Dogs must be spayed or neutred and you must apply for a ID number.
You can find more information at

AKC isn't the only game in town though. UKC, NADAC, CPE, USDAA, ASCA all allow mixed breeds to complete and I am sure there are more. Google the parent organizations to see if there are any events in your area to find out more.
