Competitive Exhibits

The competitive exhibits portion of the Montana State Fair features 21 unique departments. Potential exhibitors worldwide are invited to take advantage of one or several of these departments to showcase their talents. Exhibitors can be youth to a senior citizen, open class, or special needs. Browse the department list to see the 1000's of classes offered. Each entry competes against other entries in its individual class.

Winning entries earn ribbons, some will receive premium monies and in many cases special sponsor awards. A minimal entry fee is charged in all classes except youth.
