Trident Seafoods Day
Sunday 23 August
Trident Seafoods is back for 2026 Alaska State Fair, and this isn’t their first Salmon Rodeo. Stop by the Trident booth in Pioneer Plaza for an opportunity to ride the bucking salmon, win cool prizes, and show your love for all things Alaska Seafood. It’ll be a boatload of fun – visit www.tridentseafoods.com to learn more about us! Grab a sample at the Seafood Throwdown Cooking Contest in the Event Hall where seasoned chefs try to reel in the big prize while you get to taste their delicious seafood recipes. Presented by Pacific Seafood Processors Association. Practice your best “Yo-ho!” and root for your favorite lumberjack at the ever-popular Scheer’s Lumberjack Show in the SBS Woodlot. Stop by Hoskins Building for the Hand Stiched Quilts: Sew-Along Demos presented by Two Hens One Chick.
