BIG things are coming for the 2026 Minnesota Youth Livestock Expo!! 

We’re excited to announce several updates and improvements for this year’s show:

•ALL SPECIES; MN Bred & Raised breeders must sponsor $100+ for their animals to be eligible for the MN Bred & Raised divisions

•BEEF, SHEEP, GOAT & RABBIT: Showmanship will be a gate-cut style show

•SWINE: Market Gilts will now show with the market barrows in the Market Hog division

•SWINE: There will be a guaranteed class for every breed regardless of numbers

•SWINE: The Breeding Gilt drive will be expanded from top 5 to top 10 Breeding Gilts

We’re excited about the direction of the show and can’t wait to see everyone this summer. Be on the lookout for judges and more announcements coming soon!
