Online entry with payment options and online access to the vendor input form can be accessed via an easy online portal available at mostatefair.com. The new ShoWorks exhibitor and entries management software program will allow exhibitors to register and submit their entries along with their payment.

Fillable pdf entry forms are also available for download at the site as in years’ past.

Exhibitors under age 13 will be admitted free to the 11-day Fair again this year, while exhibitors age 13 and over will be able to purchase up to 40 single-day exhibitor admission tickets at a special price of $5. The discounted exhibitor tickets are available to order from the Fair business office at the time of competition entry through Aug. 12. These tickets will not be available at the gate, and they do not include exhibitor parking.

More than 30,000 entries are expected for this year’s annual agriculture showcase, Aug. 13-23, in Sedalia.  For more information about the year’s fair, visit www.mostatefair.com, follow the Missouri State Fair on Facebook and Twitter or call 1-800-422-FAIR (3247).
