Five State Free Fair

Meet your 2026 Seward County Five State Fair Queen Candidates!

Please join us in welcoming Brynlee, Summer, and MaKayla as they begin their journey toward the 2026 Five State Fair Queen title.

Over the next few weeks, these young women will be working hard through a variety of fundraising events as they prepare for the competition. From donation raffles and cinnamon roll sales to garage sales and appearances at the Farmers Market, there are plenty of opportunities to show your support.

These fundraisers help make the Fair Queen program possible while allowing our candidates to build leadership skills, connect with the community, and represent the values of the Five State Fair. Thank you for supporting these outstanding young women and the Seward County Five State Fair!

Calling all local businesses, organizations, families, schools, and creative minds!

The Seward County 5-State Fair Hay Bale Decorating Contest is here, and we want to see your creativity on display! Enter as an individual, team, or business and help make this year's fairgrounds one to remember.
