Markham Fair 2024 ~ Celebrating 180 Years ~ October 3, 4, 5, & 6, 2024

Ambassador Contest

Do you love attending the Markham Fair each year? If yes, we are looking for two young leaders within our community to represent the Markham Fair as our Ambassadors!

As Markham Fair Ambassadors, you have the opportunity to see the Fair in a whole new perspective while connecting with our incredible volunteers and engaging with our dedicated Fair patrons each day! This leadership role is supported with great prizes, 4 days of fun at the Fair, and for our senior ambassador an amazing scholarship opportunity and a once-in-a-lifetime journey to represent our Fair alongside the other Fair Ambassadors of Ontario at the CNE Ambassador Competition in 2025.

As the Markham Fair Ambassador, you will represent the Markham Fair during the Fair and attend local community events throughout the year. The Markham Fair is proudly represented by two Ambassadors, our Senior Ambassador (a person of any gender between ages 18 – 24) and our Junior Ambassador (a person of any gender between ages 12 – 15).

These roles have varying levels of commitment so please refer to our Ambassador Program Details and Competition Day, and FAQ links below for more information.
