One important change to note: There will not be an Anchorage entry site this year.
We love to receive entries from folks around the state, so if you can’t make it to the fairgrounds with your exhibit, please consider our mail-in option. Just be sure it arrives to us by the Friday, August 12 deadline!
Last year, we received 9,054 entries – the highest number of entries in the past 10 years! Flowers and crops were the two most popular categories, with 2,009 and 1,434 entries respectively.
