Inspired by time-honored state fair traditions—growing and gardening, contests, and delicious foods—the DC State Fair honors the things that make the District of Columbia unique. This means the DC State Fair holds competitions to find the tastiest mumbo sauce, most beautiful paintings and drawings inspired by the District, funkiest looking vegetable, best garden haul and more! Explore the 50+ contests taking place this year! Contest registration closes on Friday, August 16, 9 pm. Most contest judging takes place prior to the fair and winners are announced and awarded their ribbons at the fair.
