Acts are selected and scheduled by the fair director with consideration given
to the order in which applications are received. The deadline to submit
your application is February 15, 2025.
Applications may still be considered after this date but performers will

be held responsible for the monetary value of your Confirmation Admission Pass
based on $10.00 x the total number in your group if you do not return the Pass
