There’s more to see, enjoy and learn about in the Hospitality Building this year. Meet Farm Progress editors and staffers, check on your subscription, purchase souvenirs or register for a chance to win a Yeti prize package.

On stage, you can take in a marketing seminar, watch a TV program being recorded, learn about farm safety for children and catch “The Noon Show” live, hosted by Max Armstrong. See the stage schedule below.

And if you’re at the show on Sept. 2, swing by to meet the newest Prairie Farmer Master Farmers.

Visit for a spell

Here’s more information on everything you can do within the Hospitality Building:

Register for prizes. Stop by to enter the 2021 sweepstakes for a chance to win a Yeti prize package worth $999. See the Hospitality Building ad in the official Farm Progress Show program for more product information. Full drawing details are available inside the building.

Check subscriptions. If you are wondering how much time is left on your subscription or want to buy a subscription to Prairie Farmer, Indiana Prairie Farmer or additional Farm Progress publications, you can do that during your visit to the Hospitality Building, as well.

Buy souvenirs. If you are souvenir hunting for someone back home, check out the official 2021 Farm Progress Show collector’s pin available at the Farm Progress information counter for $5 each, while supplies last. Souvenir show T-shirts, hats and more are available for purchase, too.

Learn ATV and tractor safety. Learn how to drive an all-terrain vehicle safely to prevent rollovers. An interactive display demonstrates the physical forces that can create ATV hazards, such as load imbalances and other influences that make an ATV top heavy and a rollover risk. Check out the display of rollover protective structures for tractors, too.

Get connected. Also in the Hospitality Building, log on to the Farm Progress Wi-Fi hotspot to enter the sweepstakes, take a quick tour of Farm Progress publication websites, check commodity prices, download handy apps and register for top-notch newsletters with information from local and nationally recognized editors.

Picnic area and ATMs. Finally, the Hospitality Building has shaded picnic tables and benches if you need a place to relax. Be sure to take time to stop in, sit for a while and make your show plans. And if you are short on cash, head to the ATM inside the building.
