Essential Points on This Form

What is the deadline for submitting the Indiana State Fair Entry Form?

The regular entry deadline for the Indiana State Fair is July 1. All entries must be postmarked by this date. Late entries will be accepted from July 2 to July 21, but they will incur an additional processing charge.

How much does it cost to enter an exhibit?

The entry fee is $30.00 per department, which allows for the submission of up to 35 exhibits. If you plan to enter more than 35 exhibits, additional fees will apply. Please refer to the Handbook/Premium List for complete details on fees and conditions.

What should I do if I need to enter multiple departments?

You must use a separate entry form for each department. Each form is intended for one exhibitor only. You may photocopy the entry form as needed to accommodate multiple entries.

What happens if my entry form is incomplete?

If your entry form is incomplete, it will be returned to you. Incomplete entries are subject to applicable late fees, and you will need to resubmit your form with the correct information.

Are entry fees refundable?

No, entry fees are non-refundable. Once you submit your entry form and pay the fees, you cannot receive a refund, regardless of the circumstances.

How many tickets will I receive upon entering an exhibit?

Each exhibitor will receive six one-day passes to the Indiana State Fair. These tickets are included with your entry and allow you access to the fairgrounds during the event.

What should I do if I have questions about the entry process?

If you have questions or need assistance, you can contact the Entry Department at 317-927-7515. They can provide guidance on the entry process, fees, and any other inquiries you may have regarding your submissions.

Misconceptions

Misconceptions about the Indiana State Fair Entry form can lead to confusion and frustration for potential exhibitors. Here are nine common misunderstandings, along with clarifications to help ensure a smooth entry process.

  1. Entry forms can be submitted without a signature. This is incorrect. A valid signature in ink is mandatory for processing the entry form.
  2. Multiple exhibitors can use the same entry form. This is a misconception. Each exhibitor must submit a separate form, even if they are entering the same department.
  3. Late entries are accepted without a fee. Not true. Late entries incur an additional processing charge of $25.00, along with the standard entry fee.
  4. All fees are refundable. This is misleading. Entry fees are non-refundable, regardless of circumstances.
  5. Exhibitors can list multiple items on one line of the entry form. This is incorrect. Each item must be listed on its own line with its corresponding department, section, and class number.
  6. Entries can be submitted after the deadline if they are postmarked. This is not allowed. Entries must be postmarked by the regular deadline of July 1.
  7. Exhibitors do not need to read the Handbook/Premium List. This is a misconception. It is essential to read the Handbook for complete terms, conditions, and class information.
  8. Parking stickers and tickets are automatically included. This is misleading. While each exhibitor receives 6 one-day passes, parking stickers must be requested separately.
  9. Exhibits not picked up will be returned to the exhibitor. This is false. Exhibits not collected by the specified deadline become the property of the Indiana State Fair.

Understanding these points can help exhibitors navigate the entry process more effectively and avoid potential pitfalls.
