First Responders Day

Monday 2 September

On this last day of the Fair, we honor, celebrate, and say THANK YOU to our police, firefighters, and EMS personnel by offering $5 admission at the gate with valid ID. Meet local first responders, from firefighters, State Troopers, Palmer Police Dept., Anchorage Polics Dept. in their booths on the Fairgrounds. Zoom into the future in the Events Tent with Robotics competitions and hands-on experiences. Then, let the fun begin with the Alaska’s Got Talent finals presented by Mat-Su Regional Medical Center and the high-energy Rock-On Cloggers on the Alyeska Pipeline Colony Stage! Create your own edible masterpiece with FREE cookie decorating in the Hoskins Exhibit Building compliments of Palmer Carrs.
