Are you a baker, gardener, artist, home canner, or just someone with a really good jam recipe? The Marin County Fair’s Competitive Exhibits program is open for entries! Whether you’re decorating cakes, arranging flowers fresh from your garden, or showing off your preserves, this is your moment to let your work shine.
Competitive Exhibits are at the heart of the Fair’s long history in Marin. Enter for a chance to take home a blue ribbon and become part of a Marin County Fair tradition!
The Fair retains a 25% commission on all sales. All transactions are processed through the Fair Office, and artists are paid by check approximately six weeks after the Fair.
If you have previously received a payment from the fair AND/OR the net payout for your 2026 sold artwork(s) exceeds $600, you must register as a vendor with the County of Marin to receive payment.
When completing your Fair vendor registration, please list the sale price for each piece or mark it as Not For Sale (N.F.S.). Sale prices cannot be changed after registration.
If you have not previously received a payment from the fair AND your 2026 total net sales are under $600, then you do not need to register as a vendor to receive payment.
Hobby and Junior Division Deadline Extended to midnight June 18th
