2026 FAIR DATE: July 8th -12th, 2026

Fair Sponsorships

Plans are well underway for a milestone year as we prepare to celebrate the 160th Lodi Agricultural Fair, happening July 8–12, 2026. This year, we’re honoring tradition while embracing the future — bringing back beloved throwback events alongside new experiences designed to engage and entertain fairgoers of all ages. 

For 160 years, the Lodi Ag Fair has been a place where community comes together – where families connect, youth showcase their hard work, and agriculture is celebrated at its roots. Thanks to the generosity of supporters like you, we have remained an independent fair with no gate admission, exhibitor fees, or stall costs, ensuring the fair stays accessible to everyone. 

However, sustaining this tradition is becoming more challenging. Over the past two years, inclement weather has significantly impacted our financial stability, while the costs of hosting the fair – everything from insurance to event programming – continue to rise. 

That’s where you come in. 

Your sponsorship or donation directly supports: 
Essential building and grounds maintenance, 
Equipment repairs and upgrades 
Youth scholarships, programming and exhibitions 
Keeping the fair free and open to all 

Whether you’re able to give at a sponsorship level or make a one-time donation, your support is vital to preserving this cherished community event for generations to come. 

To become a sponsor or make a donation, please fill out and return the included form by JUNE 22nd and mail your contribution to: Lodi Ag Fair, P.O. Box 302, Lodi, WI 53555. The Lodi Ag Fair is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and all donations are tax-deductible. 

And if giving your time is more your style, we welcome you with open arms – our volunteers are truly the heart of the fair. You can connect with any fair board member or sign up at LodiAgFair.com. 

Thank you for helping us carry forward a 160-year tradition rooted
