Open Fair Exhibits

As the Northern Wisconsin State Fair is a regional fair, Open Fair exhibitors can reside in any state, county, or be of any age. Competitive exhibits are the foundation of county and state fairs, and there is sure to be an area you can find that interests you to showcase your talents, skills, and antiques.

The Exhibit Guide is now available. If you have questions about exhibiting, contact Dawn Totzke, Exhibit Manager, at dtotzke@nwsfa.com.
