Philadelphia food lovers, families and curious day-trippers are among the crowds that head to Harrisburg each January for the Pennsylvania Farm Show, one of the largest annual events in the state.
The Pennsylvania Farm Show returns from Jan. 10 to Jan. 17 at the Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex and Expo Center. The eight-day event typically draws more than half a million visitors to the state’s capitol city.
The show brings together food, competition and education under one roof. Highlights include the expansive Farm Show Food Court, live cooking demonstrations and thousands of competitive agricultural events ranging from livestock judging to baking and fiber arts. More than one million square feet of exhibits offer hands-on looks at agriculture across the state.
Fan-favorite attractions also return, including the iconic 1,000-pound butter sculpture, along with demonstrations and showcases highlighting Pennsylvania’s agriculture and food industry.
