26th Annual Round Up Auction

August 8 - August 8, 2025

Preregistered guests enter through Green Gate and proceed to Tractor Supply Arena. This is a private event for ticketed guests only. This is a 21 and over event.

The Washington State Fair Foundation has been a long-standing investor in the academic achievements of students throughout our state for decades. Since the inception of the Blue Ribbon Scholarship program in 1991, over $2 million worth of scholarships have been awarded to high school seniors and adult learners pursuing scholastic success. In 2024, it is our goal to continue uplifting and promoting the power of education.

The 26th Annual Round Up Auction will be held on August 2, 2024. In the coming year, we will award $157,000 to students throughout Washington with funding generated by this incredible effort. Martinis & Mules will be a gathering of community-minded individuals who truly care about our students and we hope you will join us at this event and celebrate the future of student education!
