Maricopa County Fair

The Maricopa County Fair is annually held in Phoenix, Arizona at the Arizona State Fairgrounds. It began in the 1950s as a county fair and citrus festival.[1][2]

Every year the fair holds a different theme. Exhibits hundreds of livestock exhibits from local 4-H and FFA clubs and chapters, arts, science fair, cook-offs, rides, tractor shows, live entertainment from musical artists, group tours, vendors, monster trucks, demolition derby, motocross, and food fill the fairgrounds. Saturday night hosts the Junior Livestock Auction when exhibitors have a chance to sell their projects they've worked on all year. The largest group of participants of the Maricopa County Fair is Arizona's youth.

Operations

The fair is organized by Maricopa County Fair, Inc, a private non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that receives no tax revenue or funding from Maricopa County. The members of the organization are forty-five elected commissioners and two ex officio members. The Board of Directors is composed of nineteen volunteer members.[3]
