YMBL South Texas State Fair

The YMBL South Texas State Fair returns to Doggett Ford Park in Beaumont, Texas, March 25–April 4, 2026. Come for the FUN, make an IMPACT.

The South Texas State Fair is the only fundraiser for the Young Men’s Business League (YMBL). Proceeds go back into Southeast Texas supporting youth programs, local charities, and efforts that aid seniors and neighbors in need.

Founded in 1917 by Ed Paggi and a group of community leaders, the Young Men’s Business League is a nonprofit civic organization with more than 100 years of service to our region. Powered by volunteers, YMBL brings people together through leadership, service, and events that have strengthened Southeast Texas for more than a century.
