Livestock Registration

LIVESTOCK REGISTRATION IS OPEN!
  • Use the link below to register your animals. You now have the option to pay entry fees online or you can always bring them to the show. Once your registration is processed, we will contact you if we have any questions.

Show-specific rules can be viewed in the livestock events.

*Entry fees are waived for Dyer County Junior Livestock Association show entries.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR 2026

  • Parking – Follow the signs to enter the livestock gate and proceed to the barn as usual. *The livestock gate will be available for entrance to trailered vehicles only during the designated hours listed below due to crowd safety concerns except in cases of emergencies.  One Livestock Parking Pass will be issued to each truck attached to a livestock trailer that will be parked in the designated Livestock Parking area.  All other vehicles must be parked in General Parking. There will be absolutely no parking around the livestock barn. Please help us keep the area around the barn clear for livestock movement, emergency access, exhibitors, and the safety of everyone on the grounds. Once unloaded, you will be directed to the livestock parking area. (See map below)
  • Admission – The Livestock gate entrance is a pass only gate meaning that to enter this gate, you MUST have purchased your herdsman pass, season pass, or gate admission tickets in advance. Season passes ($25) or Herdsman passes ($15) can be purchased by visiting the fair office prior to the fair or you can purchase your tickets in advance by using the “TICKETS” link at the top of the page. To purchase herdsman passes online, you must use the unlock code presented during checkout when registering your animals.
  • Bedding – Sawdust will be provided for stalling. Exhibitors may add bagged shavings if needed.

  • Livestock Release – All animals must remain in the barn and will not be released for loading before 8:00 p.m. Please do not begin loading or removing livestock before that time.
