NEW THIS YEAR: 


Is your child rockin’ a wild mane?  It’s time to put those locks to the test!

New this year, kids ages 8-17 may register online for a chance to compete in the Kids Mullet Parade.   

These selected participants will walk across the stage with flare and pizazz to strut their stuff prior to the adult competition.  The overall winner will receive an Illinois State Fair prize basket – but more importantly, the bragging rights that will last (at least) an entire year!

  • Must be between the ages of 8-17 to enter the Kids Parade
