Drawings are permissible with approval from the Fair ONLY. The form to register your Drawing is online “Drawings, Giveaways and Special Activities”, and must be received in the Fair Office for approval no later than August 1st, or the drawing will not be allowed to take place. The Fair reserves the right of final approval for all products or services to be rendered, before and during the Kansas State Fair. Exhibitor shall exhibit, sell, or have a drawing, for only such items as are listed on the License Agreement, and approved on the Drawings, Giveaways and Special Activities Application. When offering free prizes or drawing items, full disclosure must be made. There can be no hidden or undisclosed charges or deposits on the item(s) being offered. If the offer says “free” it must be completely without cost or required purchase. If Commercial Exhibits Coordinator determines that full disclosure is not being made, any drawing forms already collected will be confiscated, drawing will be discontinued, and Exhibitor may not be invited to return. A card or e-mail will be returned, indicating the drawing item(s) that have been approved. For more information see DONATIONS OR RAFFLES FOR A PRIZE DRAWING.
Guidelines on the Drawings, Giveaways and Special Activities Application must be followed. Names, addresses and phone numbers obtained during the Fair are for the exclusive use of the Exhibitor only. No sale or transfer of names allowed.
All drawings for items must be public and held by 5:00 pm on the final day of the Fair, unless it is a national drawing and so indicated on signage at the booth, as well as on the registration forms used for the drawing. If an Exhibitor is holding a "national" drawing which will be held after the Fair, Commercial Exhibits Coordinator must be notified of the specifics for the drawing. If there is a local winner, this name must be submitted and then the "national" winner turned in immediately after the drawing. All others must provide the name(s) of winner(s) on the proper form, to the Kansas State Fair Office, by 8:00 pm on the final day of the Fair.
