Iowa State Fair
Join us Aug. 7-17, 2025!
The University of Northern Iowa booth at the Iowa State Fair each year offers a plethora of opportunities to Panther fans, both old and new. Alumni can reconnect with the university, those interested in attending can find out more about UNI’s programs, sports fans can grab a poster or fall schedule, and everyone can learn more about the exciting things happening at UNI. And don’t forget to grab some new UNI gear from the UNI Bookstore while you’re there.
Whether you want to volunteer in the booth or just plan to stop by while you are at the fair, learn more about UNI at the Iowa State Fair.
UNI's Exhibit
There are a few things you can count on in the UNI booth. You can grab a photo with TC, pick up some new Panther gear or snag some posters for your home or classroom. And don’t forget your temporary tattoo! But there is also always something new and exciting. So find us in the Varied Industries Building from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day of the fair.

Volunteer Registration
Interested in representing UNI at the Iowa State Fair? We’d love to have current students, alumni, employees and friends of the university join us for a few hours to help spread the word about how great UNI is. You will receive an admission ticket to the fair, a shirt to wear during your shift that you can keep, and a great time connecting with Panthers of all ages.
If you’re wanting to volunteer as a group, everyone should fill out the form individually with a note in the “Special instructions/comments” field of who you’d like to work with. Shifts are filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
If you have any questions now or during the fair, please contact Amelia Holden-McMurray at amelia.holden-mcmurray@uni.edu or 319-273-3214.
