It's barely officially summer, and we're already looking forward to the Central Washington State Fair in September.

This year's fair runs Friday, September 23rd thru Sunday, October 2nd at the Fairgrounds in Yakima. This year will mark the fair's 130th anniversary.

The Central Washington State Fair is Presenting an Amazing Entertainment Lineup

I have witnessed some incredible shows over the years in Yakima during the Central Washington State Fair. Always a wide variety of genres and performances to enjoy and certainly something for everyone. This year will be exceptional.

First off, Bull rider fans will be thrilled to learn that new this year will be the PBR Challenger Series event in the Coca-Cola Grandstands. You know the dust is gonna fly and you get entry into the fair with your PBR Challenger Series Ticket. That saves you some cash to spend on a corn dog and a coke! (at least that's what I'll be having) This show is happening at 5:00 pm on Saturday, October 1st.

Let's face it, livestock can be hilarious, but you're guaranteed to bust a gut when comedy superstar Jeff Foxworthy takes the Toyota Main Stage. If you don't already know, you're likely to find out if 'you might be a redneck'. This stop in Yakima will be part of Foxworthy's 'The Good Old Days Tour'.  The show is Friday, September 30th.
