Want to help reward our youth for their dedication to agriculture?

We are still accepting donations for buckles to award our livestock exhibitors, and we'll be accepting these donations until July 20th!

We appreciate our community's support!

We've got a deal for you! The 5-hour unlimited ride armbands for the Talley Amusements carnival are on sale!

Starting this Tuesday (June 16), when tickets go on sale, you will be able to purchase one of these armbands for $35 ($5 off the on-site purchase price). Upon purchasing, you will print or download a QR code to redeem advance sales at CARNIVAL KIOSKS on the fairgrounds. An unlimited ride armband does not include fair admission. Fair admission must be purchased separately, or you can choose to purchase the $55 combination unlimited ride and admission option. Advance sales end August 21st at 12:00 p.m. (noon).

🤠✨2026 Contestant Highlight Series✨🤠

Meet contestant Mckinley Wagley, who is competing for the title of Miss Rodeo Texas Princess!

“I want to become Miss Rodeo Texas Princess because I love the sport of rodeo and everything it stands for. Rodeo has helped shape who I am by teaching me confidence, responsibility, and respect.

I love representing my rodeo and meeting new people. Being involved in community outreach and teaching others about horses and rodeo is one of my favorite parts of being a titleholder.

It would mean so much to take the North Texas Fair and Rodeo title to the state level and proudly carry the title from the rodeo that first gave me the chance, as I chase the state title that has been my dream since I was 7 years old.”

✨ Mckinley’s hobbies & memberships include:
• Horseback riding
• Rodeo queening
• Elite Team Competitive Dance
• Ballet
• Jazz
• Contemporary
• Lyrical
• Musical Theater
• Pointe

Stay tuned to learn more about Mckinley today!
