Animals scheduled for exhibit or in a competition and/or performance are also allowed on the grounds. Guests with these animals must retain control of their animals at all times and must keep them on a leash or harness while visiting. Animals whose sole function is to provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as service animals under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Please do not leave your pets in your vehicle while you are visiting the Fair.
