LANCASTER – “Saay Whaaat?!” is the theme tagline for the 2020 Antelope Valley Fair and Alfalfa Festival, Fair officials announced Monday.
The winning theme was chosen by the Fair Association’s Board of Directors from a field of nearly 500 entries in the Fair’s annual theme contest. The top theme was submitted by Robert Sepulveda, a second time tagline winner. In 2017, Sepulveda submitted the winning tagline “Cele-Grape-tion.”
“I’m thrilled that ‘Saay Whaaat?!’ was selected for the 2020 Fair tagline. It’s quirky yet relatable to most people,” Sepulveda said.
As the theme tagline winner, Sepulveda will receive Fair tickets to all events, have the option to participate in several pre-Fair events, and more.
“I’ve been going to the Antelope Valley Fair for many, many years. When I attend the Fair, I see so many family and friends… it’s just like getting a big community hug every summer,” Sepulveda added.
“This year’s selected tagline, ‘Saay Whaaat?!’ sets the tone for another fun year for both a creative theme and marketing messaging,” said AV Fair and Event Center CEO Dan Jacobs. “We’re very excited for the upcoming Fair season where we’ll have a few surprises this year.”
The dates of the 2020 AV Fair and Alfalfa Festival are August 21 to 30, 2020. For all AV Fair and Event Center information, visit avfair.com.

Seriously Lancaster Fair, this is a joke, right?

This is a joke right?
Robert says
The Fair is now a waste of time, unless there is a good Rock Band from the past on the schedule.
The event is scheduled at the worst time of the year…. the hottest days of summer. Yuck.
No longer appealing to most Seniors.
What is that ‘tagline’ again? SMH.
JPB says
It’s shocking that Rex hasn’t arranged for the Communist Chinese government to run the Fair yet. Silencing critics is something they share in common.

Is this a joke? We all know Lancaster is, but now the Fair?
Tom says
Whatttt was the fair directors thinking voting on this out of 500 choices? The dumbest theme I’ve ever heard of for any event or fair. They must have been drunk again at the meeting.
Fair says
Lancaster is the cultural capital of the world.
