PRCA Rodeo returns to NW WA Fair this summer. Here’s how to rope some tickets

The Northwest Washington Fair will return to Lynden from Aug. 7-16 with another year of entertainment and concerts at its Grandstand Arena.

The fair has already announced live concerts by American country singer Jake Owen, Chandler Moore, a Grammy-winning Christian music singer and part of Maverick City Music, and iconic rock group ZZ Top.

Fair officials recently announced another entertainment option that is very familiar to the area and fair arena: The Lynden PRCA Rodeo.
