Beginning in 2022, World Dairy Expo will be held Sunday through Friday while remaining at its home at the Alliant Energy Center in Madison. Show organizers say the schedule change was made to improve efficiencies for all stakeholders, including exhibitors, attendees and event partners.
"For years, Expo's Trade Show exhibitors have requested a shorter exhibition period to better align with today's trade show industry standards," WDE said in a press release. "Meanwhile, maintaining five days for showring events is necessary to provide time and space for the beloved traditions on the colored shavings. This new event schedule also brings with it a breed show rotation plan."
The Dairy Cattle Show will begin on Monday starting next year, with the Trade Show kicking off on Tuesday. The event that serves as the meeting place of the global dairy industry will conclude on the night of Friday, October 7 with the naming of the Supreme Champion.
Youth events and contests will be held on Sunday prior to the cattle shows.
