Free tickets to the Evergreen State Fair? Here’s how to score one.

Evergreen state fair

The Evergreen State Fair returns in August, and now’s your chance to score free admission.

The Lee Johnson Auto Family has partnered with the fair for its annual food drive.

For every five nonperishable items you donate between now and July 10, you’ll receive one weekday gate admission ticket.

There’s a limit of five tickets per vehicle and visit, and ticket quantities are limited.

The donations will benefit the Snohomish County Food Bank Coalition.

In 2024, the Lee Johnson Auto Family says the Evergreen State Fair Food Drive brought in over 16,000 pounds of donations.

When is the Evergreen State Fair?

The fair takes place from August 21 to August 26 and from August 28 to September 1 at the fairgrounds in Monroe.
