UW–Madison Day at the Wisconsin State Fair

UW–Madison’s long history of service and outreach will be celebrated at the Wisconsin State Fair on August 10. Join Bucky Badger, the UW Marching Band, and alumni from around the world on Central Mall for science demonstrations, musical performances, athletic contests, and samples of products developed at the university.

Your visit to the State Fair can also help others. To benefit Milwaukee-area children in need of supplies for a successful school year, UW–Madison is sponsoring a school-supplies drive. Simply bring a new, unopened school supply to a State Fair admissions gate, and you’ll receive a voucher for $5 off a Midway “Ride All Day” wristband (while supplies last). One discount per item donated.

For more information, including a list of school supplies, visit the Wisconsin State Fair website.
