About Central Washington State Fair

The Central Washington State Fair in Yakima — the State Fair Park — is a ten-day September-into-October fair and one of the longest-running fairs in the Pacific Northwest. Serving the Yakima Valley, Washington's agricultural heartland, it celebrates the apples, hops, wine grapes, and livestock that make this region one of the most productive farming areas in the world.

What to Expect

Livestock shows, 4-H competitions, carnival rides, live entertainment, fair food, demolition derbies, and displays of Yakima Valley's remarkable agricultural products fill ten days of programming.

Visitor Tips

September in the Yakima Valley is harvest season — the smell of hops drying and apple orchards in full production makes this one of the most sensory-rich fair experiences in Washington.
