Mississippi Youth Expo

About

The Mississippi Youth Expo (MYE) is a national youth livestock exposition held in Jackson, Mississippi. It is open to exhibitors from every state aged 21 and under, with classes for beef cattle, swine, market goats and lambs, and it advertises growing prize payouts and a deliberately relaxed show atmosphere. The 2024 edition was the show's sixth year.

2026 edition

• Dates: Thursday 10 to Sunday 13 December 2026
• Location: Jackson, Mississippi, United States (the expo is held at the Mississippi State Fairgrounds, 1207 Mississippi Street, where the show's earlier editions were staged)
• Open to exhibitors from every state, ages 21 and under

Notes

• The organiser announced the 2026 dates on the expo's official Facebook page on 29 July 2026, saying further details - judges, new opportunities and other updates - would follow in the coming months.
• The expo's own domain, msyouthexpo.com, has been allowed to lapse: it now serves a domain-expired page and no longer answers over HTTPS. The official Facebook page is currently the organiser's active channel, so that is the link used here.
• Organiser: Mississippi Youth Expo Inc., based in Newton, Mississippi.
