2026 CA Youth Ag Expo

July 30 – August 2, 2026 | Tulare, CA

About The Event

Join us July 30 – August 2, 2026, at the International Agri-Center in Tulare, California for the California Youth Ag Expo — unlike any other event on the West Coast, where exhibitors are put first and rewarded for going above and beyond to showcase their livestock and learn valuable life lessons. Open to all youth cattle, sheep, goat, and swine exhibitors from across California, the CYAE brings together hundreds of 4-H and FFA students for elite competition, meaningful connection, and once-in-a-lifetime opportunities. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, the Expo draws more than 500 exhibitors, educators, and families from across the state — and awards more than $150,000 to California’s hardworking young exhibitors through sale premiums and academic scholarships. These young future leaders are the next generation of agriculturalists, doctors, nurses, mechanics, teachers, and business professionals — learning the value of hard work and determination, and understanding that success stems from their own effort. Don’t miss California’s premier youth livestock show — where the next generation of agriculture takes center stage.
