The 2026 Lil’ Hams Showmanship Contest is happening Wednesday, September 2, just 15 minutes after the regular swine showmanship contest in the Coliseum!
Open to kids ages 5–9 (as of Jan 1), this fun, no-pressure event gives young fairgoers the chance to step into the show ring, work with a pig, and learn the basics of showmanship, all alongside a mentor.
