Rockwall Youth Fair Returns with Livestock, Household Enjoyable and $100K Market Sale – Blue Ribbon Information

Celebrating ‘Time-Treasured Opportunities’

Get able to rejoice a Rockwall County custom! From March 25–28, 2026, the 73rd Annual Rockwall Youth Fair returns to showcase the agricultural heritage of Rockwall County. Held at Tate Farms (12992 FM 548), this occasion highlights the exhausting work of Rockwall County 4-H and FFA college students.

Through these applications, native youth acquire invaluable management abilities and a deep understanding of how agriculture impacts our day by day lives. For many, a easy love for animals transforms right into a lifelong ardour and a year-round dedication to excellence.

Event Highlights

Ag Mechanics Judging kicks off Thursday, March 26, at 12 p.m. on the Rockwall ISD Ag Science Center (875 Riding Club Road). Come see spectacular student-built initiatives, lots of which will likely be out there on the market sale.

Livestock Exhibition begins Friday, March 27, at 5 p.m., college students will present their breeding and market animals—together with rabbits, hogs, goats, lambs, steers, heifers, cavies and poultry.  This is the end result of a whole bunch of hours of devoted care and preparation.

Support the Future of Agriculture

The Market Sale begins Saturday, March 28, at 1 p.m. This is an important alternative for the group to help these hardworking college students.
