What makes Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show different, and how we build for it

The IDEAg Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show calls itself the largest farm show in Texas, and it fills the Amarillo Civic Center's North and South Exhibit Halls, Coliseum, Regency Room, concourses and Heritage Ballroom with more than 400 exhibitors. Within 200 miles IDEAg counts 4.75 million irrigated acres and over a million beef cows, so irrigation and cattle sit beside cotton and wheat. The Beef Cattle Presentation and Roundtable in the Grand Plaza, Texas A&M Farm & Ranch Management CEU sessions and the Texas Wheat Symposium keep producers in the building, and admission and parking are free.

Irrigated grain and cotton farmers

Pivots, pumps, sensors, seed and equipment that pay back on Ogallala water, explained by someone who knows Panhandle soil.

Cattle ranchers and feeders

Handling, feed, fencing and animal health products shown working, plus market talk they can take home.

Dairy operators

Feeding, milking and manure equipment for the Panhandle's large dairies, with service support close by.

How Purple runs the Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show

Amarillo is a straight run east on I-40 from Las Vegas, where Purple fabricates and prints this booth before Veal Convention Services takes it into the Civic Center. Heavy pieces are placed where forklifts may work. Your Purple project manager runs move-in on IDEAg's schedule with the labor Veal and the Civic Center require, and has the booth out by midnight.

Rules that shape your Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show booth

No forklifts on carpet

The H, A, G and L series booths (L1350 to L1401) are in carpeted areas where forklifting is not allowed, and items there must be hand-carried or carted (2026 manual). We match booth location to product weight before contracting.

Organizer rule

5 feet at the aisle, 8 at the back

Displays may not exceed 5 feet in the first 5 feet of the booth; the back 5 feet can reach 8 feet (2026). Large equipment needs space around it for attendees to walk all sides.

Organizer rule

Veal is the official contractor

Veal Convention Services is the official decorator and drayage contractor from 2026; forklift use is invoiced by Veal. We place orders through it and keep handling weights accurate.

Organizer rule

Claim the space or lose it

In 2026, space not occupied by 5 p.m. on the day before opening may be cancelled or reassigned without refund, and unstarted displays can be set by IDEAg-hired labor at the exhibitor's cost.

Organizer rule

Programs worth planning for

Beef Cattle Presentation & Roundtable

In 2026, three roundtables on markets, genetics and the future of beef, a USDA chief economist keynote and a ribeye dinner benefiting the Working Ranch Cowboys Foundation.

The booth we would build for Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show 2027

The water-and-cattle counter for the Panhandle

Panhandle producers think in acre-inches of water and pounds per head. The booth that works in Amarillo shows one piece of hardware, a nozzle, sensor, gate or feeder, and turns it into those two numbers at a counter where a rancher in a winter coat can lean and do the math.

Concept plan for Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show, not to scale: zones follow the show rules on this page; your final plan is drawn to your space and the organizer's rules.
01

Hardware on the floor

The pivot drop, pump control, chute or feeder on uncarpeted floor where Veal's forklift can place it, lit from a frame overhead.

02

Numbers wall

A back wall within the 8-foot rear limit with three numbers: water saved, labor saved and payback, in big type readable from the aisle.

03

Lean counter

A standing counter under the 5-foot front limit, with a tablet that runs a producer's acres or head count through the math.

04

Roundtable corner

Two chairs for ranchers coming out of the Wednesday cattle roundtable, with take-home sheets on markets and genetics topics.

The demo

Run water through a nozzle display, swing a gate or show the feeder dropping a ration, then put the producer's own acres or head count into the payback sheet.

The meetings

IDEAg runs no meeting system and bars after-hours attendee events at the Civic Center, so meetings happen in the booth during show hours. Book dealer and customer visits for the mornings and keep staff free when the Beef Cattle Roundtable lets out.

More from every acre-inch. More from every head.

Designing an Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show booth for the Civic Center

Two farmhands stacking square hay bales on a trailer in summer heat1

Pick a floor you can forklift

IDEAg's manual says the H, A, G and L series booths sit on carpet where forklifting is not allowed, so everything there is hand-carried. We put heavy pieces in the North and South Exhibit Halls, Concourse, Regency or Coliseum, which are uncarpeted.

Rancher in a straw hat feeding hay over a fence to white-faced cattle in a dirt pen2

Five feet in front, eight at back

Inside a 10×10, displays may reach 5 feet in the first 5 feet of the booth and 8 feet in the back half. We design back walls and counters to that profile so nothing is reworked on site.

Rancher in a pale felt hat standing among bay horses with low mountains on the horizon3

Speak water and cattle

IDEAg counts 4.75 million irrigated acres and over a million beef cows within 200 miles. Graphics that talk about water saved per acre or pounds gained per head read better here than general farm claims.

Plan the Wednesday roundtable

In 2026 the Beef Cattle Roundtable runs Wednesday afternoon in the Grand Plaza and ends with a steak dinner. Cattle brands near the Grand Plaza and with staff free after 3 p.m. catch ranchers going in and out.

DGrand Plaza and Heritage Ballroom
Amarillo Civic Center (2027 venue not confirmed yet), AmarilloSchematic, not to scale
A

North and South Exhibit Halls

Uncarpeted halls where forklifts can place equipment, irrigation spans and heavy displays.

Our advice Put anything over hand-carry weight here; Veal charges by the hundredweight.

B

Coliseum floor

Uncarpeted arena floor used for larger equipment displays.

Our advice A tall machine or pivot span reads best here; we light it from a free-standing frame.

C

Carpeted H, A, G and L series

Booths L1350 to L1401 and the H, A and G series sit on carpet with no forklifting; everything is hand-carried or carted.

Our advice Good for services and lighter products; we pack in cases a cart can move.

D

Grand Plaza and Heritage Ballroom

Home of the Beef Cattle Roundtable in 2026 and of education sessions.

Our advice Booths on the path to the Grand Plaza see ranchers before and after the roundtable.

Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show notes from IDEAg's manual

  1. Forklifts cannot work on the carpeted H, A, G and L series booths, so anything heavy belongs in the uncarpeted halls or Coliseum. source

  2. Exhibitors can enter from 7 a.m. on show days but must leave by 5:30 p.m. on the first two days, and no after-hours events for attendees are allowed at the Civic Center. source

  3. The 2026 opening-morning window from 7 to 8:30 a.m. is for touch-ups only, with no forklift service, so finish heavy setup the day before. source

  4. The whole Civic Center must be cleared by midnight on the last show day in 2026, so have trucks booked for the evening. source

  5. The 2026 show-block hotel, Embassy Suites Amarillo Downtown, filled before the show, so book rooms as soon as 2027 dates are out. source

Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show exhibitor questions

Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show 2027 exhibitor questions

When is the Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show 2027?

Not confirmed yet for 2027. The 2026 show runs December 1–3, 2026 at the Amarillo Civic Center, with 9 a.m. starts, 5 p.m. closes on December 1 and 2 and a 3 p.m. close on December 3, per IDEAg.

Where is the Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show held?

At the Amarillo Civic Center, 3rd and Buchanan, downtown Amarillo, for 2026; IDEAg describes the show as coming to the Civic Center every year, and the 2027 venue is not confirmed yet.

How much is a booth at the Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show?

$1,295 for a 10×10 booth in 2026, per IDEAg. A Purple rental 10×20 dressed in your graphics costs $7,500 to $15,000 beyond space; a custom 20×20 island is $50,000 to $120,000.

How many people attend the Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show?

15,600 attended in 2025, the highest in six years, per IDEAg, and more than 400 exhibitors take part. Admission and parking are free.

Who is the decorator for the Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show?

Veal Convention Services, new for 2026, handles furnishings, drayage and forklifts. Its 2026 handling rate is $50 per hundredweight straight time, $100 minimum, and forklifts with drivers are $110 an hour.

Can we use a forklift anywhere in the Civic Center?

Not on carpet: the H, A, G and L series booths are in carpeted areas where forklifting is not allowed. The North and South Exhibit Halls, Concourse, Regency and Coliseum are uncarpeted.

What are the booth height rules?

Displays may be up to 5 feet tall in the front 5 feet of a 10×10 and up to 8 feet in the back 5 feet, per IDEAg's 2026 manual. Large equipment needs room around it so attendees can walk all sides.

What events run at the Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show?

Who exhibits at the Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show?

No. IDEAg does not allow after-hours events for attendees at the Civic Center, and exhibitors leave by 5:30 p.m. on the first two show days.

How is the Amarillo show different from the Tulsa Farm Show?

Amarillo serves the Texas Panhandle's irrigated grain, cotton, cattle and dairy country; the Tulsa Farm Show, run by Midwest Shows the following week in 2026, leans to Oklahoma ranching and cattle handling. Both are December indoor shows.

Can Purple build our Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show booth?

We can. Amarillo is within reach of our Las Vegas shop; we ship through Veal, place heavy items on uncarpeted floor, and a Purple project manager sees the booth from first crate to midnight clear-out.

Before you sign for Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show

Five questions to ask any exhibit builder for Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show:

  1. Is our Amarillo Civic Center booth on carpet or uncarpeted floor, and how does that change what we can bring?
  2. Will our back wall and counter fit IDEAg's 5-foot front and 8-foot rear height rule?
  3. How will you order Veal handling and forklift time, and estimate the hundredweight charge?
  4. How will you schedule move-in so heavy setup is done before the opening-morning touch-up window?
  5. Can the booth be packed and loaded by midnight on the last day?

What Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show exhibitors ask us

There are no 2027 dates yet. Should we wait? Start the design now. The show has run in early December at the Civic Center, and a booth built for its height rules and floor types fits whatever dates IDEAg sets.

Our booth is in a carpeted area. Can we still show equipment? Only what can be hand-carried or carted, since forklifts are barred on carpet there. For anything heavier, ask IDEAg for space in the North or South Exhibit Hall or Coliseum.

Is a free-admission show full of tire-kickers? IDEAg's region is commercial agriculture: 70% of the 41,725 farms within 200 miles run over 500 acres. Free entry brings the whole family of a large operation, including the people who sign checks.
