Outdoor Exhibits & Concessions Info

We're thrilled about your interest in joining the fun at the State Fair of Louisiana! If you decide to apply, your application becomes a key part of our excitement, and we've got some friendly details to make the process smooth for you.

Just a heads up, the consideration of your application depends on factors like space availability, required space, and the variety of products being showcased by fellow participants. To complete your application, don't forget to throw in a current photo of your display area or concessions trailer – it's a game-changer for us!

If you get the nod as a vendor, it's super important to commit to being open every day of the Fair. We want to keep the energy alive, so no late admissions or early exits, please! We ask all exhibitors and concessionaires to follow our rules and regulations. Here's the deal: the first violation gets you a friendly written warning, the second brings a $100 fine your way, and the third and final one unfortunately leads to termination/eviction from current and future State Fair of Louisiana activities.

We can't wait to dive into your application and potentially welcome you to the State Fair family!
