A unique experience as well as very educational. Entrance is FREE. Lots of different displays and seminars, from cooking to wine tasting to Sheep to Shawl. There are tractor pulls, including lawn tractors, as well as two rodeos. If it any way relates to food, there is probably an exhibit, display or seminar on it at the show. There is also lots of great PA food to buy, and the proceeds support local organizations. You could also win a years supply of ice cream from Turkey Hill, by completing the "Farm Show Detective" challenge, which also serves as a fun way to help guide you through the exhibits. The PA farm show is well worth braving the cold weather and checking out.

It was really a good place for the kids to get to learn more about the state that we live in and learn about Farm animals along with a lot of great snacks to choose from as well as all the activities that they offer. It is perfect for the family I think! Only downfall is how crowded it can become...well I guess thats the price of attending such a fun & educational-annual event huh? My little youngsters absolutely loved it and did not want to leave.. :(

Fun place but way to crowded. The maim floor where all the vendors are gets packed. Next year, there needs to be a design overhaul. Vendors are too close together and people are oblivious to their surroundings. They will walk with the flow of people and just stop to gawk and hold up others. If the vendors were properly spaced out, this would not occur. Gave 2 stars soley for the milkshakes that my twins love!

Well equipped to host tournaments, bathrooms are decent, large food selection, but the main tournament hall is very hot and they leave the doors open to allow cold air to breeze through. Only problem with that is it causes bloody noses to the players. No lie. 2 back to back, different teams same court. Plus the facility stinks, but i get it....Farmshow.

Just was at the Alpaca show, what a cool event. I had a incredible custom made omelette for breakfast inside their cafe area, very good surprise. It was first time at this show but everything was easy from driving in to parking. The staff couldnt have been nicer. Everyone there was so helpful. Took some great pictures hope to post soon.

Ive been to the farm show here in the past, and its definitely an unforgettable memory, from tractor square dancing (yes thats a thing), to riding a mechanical bull, to viewing a huge variety of farm animals, this complex is huge enough to contain it all, yet small enough to navigate through every inch of the show,

Ive been going to the Farm Show for over sixty years. Its been one of the few things in my life that seems to get better with each passing year. Not to say things are the same. The Show changes with the times, but still manages to retain the rural feeling; though somehow the pigs still seem to get fatter.

Great events held here, entrance into parking & building (including ADA options) are fantastic & arrangements in place for addl parking & shuttle teansportation. Biggest complaint is in local handling of mass exodus at night end-took an hour to get out of parking lot and into moving traffic, thru stop lights

I have gone here for the farm show and gun shows which were great. I went for the car show and the backlog of traffic turning left got old. I know for other events they have police direct traffic. May be nice to have that for more events. There are nice restrooms here. The milkshakes are the best.

Venue is always ok. But the Home Builders Show was a complete disappointment compared to other times Ive attended. Fewer vendors, more high pressure sales than helpful folks. Like walking through rows of used car salesman. Was not worth the $10 per person entry price. We will not be back.

What do you do when the lots are full? After one hundred years you would think there would be a plan B for full lots. Not good to drive up to see the show just to turn around and go home. Maybe parking at the mall with shuttle service. Anything is better then the mess that happens now.

I go to this place one a year to attend a 3 day convention and it is very organise and well suited for the event. Clean and very aircondioning is well maintained. The parking facility is also more then adiquit at walking distance. Overall great place for gathering for few thousands.

Very large complex. I have been there for two gun shows and the great American outdoorsman show. It has a lot of space for a myriad of different events. But whatever event you go to, many rooms still smell faintly like a barn, as many farm shows are held here, as one would expect.

My husband and his friends go every year and I also have attended. We really enjoy the event and all the venders. Very informational, items to purchase and so much more ! We are saddened that we wont be there this year due to the mess that is going on. Hope to see you soon !

The Farm Show Complex hosts a slew of events. Everytime Ive gone the people working there have been really helpful. Most recently was the gun show and that was a life changing awesome experience! Many thanks go out to the Farm Show for providing events for everyone to enjoy!

Very nice facility. I went for the Farm Show, Motorama, and the Home Show. Each visit was very nice. Staff is friendly. I give 4 stars because of the many elevation changes, it can be difficult to navigate without a map. Actually, even with a map it was a bit difficult.

I loved the farm show last year, I have friends who are farmers, and attend with their cows so this will be my 2nd year this year, everything about it is great, from food to vendors, AND YOU CANT FORGET THE PA PREFERRED MILKSHADES, and the Souveiniers

Always a great time! If you have never been, it is something you really need to put on your bucket list! What is better if you live and work in the great state of Pennsylvania than to learn about our animals and agriculture. Plus a lot more in between!

Its hard to rate this because the experience depends so much on what you are going to see. This rating reflects the building and parking which is well attended and organized. I have always had a safe and pleasant experience at the farm show complex.

Do not go on the weekend!! If u have a stroller leave it home people are rudeand disrespectful!! Way to many people for the buildings!! Over capacity limit for fire code. And make sure u eat at hone cause food court was over crowded as well.

Harry Poorman

Great place for almost anything. Ive seen every thing from soccer to racing and all sorts of shows in between here. Sometimes in the middle of winter for say the Motorcycle or farm show, coming in from the parking lot can be an adventure.

Justin Ramsey

Attended the farm show and had a great time as always! Draft horse competition, duck slide, chick hatch, rabbits, cows, pigs, sheep, chickens, alpacas - whats not to like? Dont forget the food! Baked potatoes and fried cheese are my faves!

Good place for large conventions and shows but they often charge $10+ for parking in addition to whatever show admission is charged. There seems to be limited nearby dining choices. Food on site is expensive but they have a decent variety.
