Step right up and join your fellow supporters of the North Carolina Forward Party (NCFP) at one of our state’s most beloved traditions—the North Carolina State Fair! Running from October 16 to October 26 in Raleigh, the Fair has been bringing North Carolinians together for more than 150 years with food, rides, games, exhibits, and live entertainment that showcase the best of our state’s culture and community. Each year, hundreds of thousands of visitors come to celebrate what makes North Carolina unique.

This year, we’re excited to be part of the action. The NCFP will be hosting a booth—shared with our friends at the Libertarian Party of North Carolina—where fairgoers can learn more about our movement, ask questions, and help us achieve a critical goal: securing enough signatures to get the Forward Party on the ballot in NC in 2026.

We need volunteers to make it happen! By signing up for a shift at our booth, you’ll help introduce festival-goers to the Forward Party, collect signatures, and spread the word about building a healthier, more representative democracy here in North Carolina. Whether you can give a few hours or a few days, your time and energy will make a huge impact.

Interested in volunteering? Please reach out to our Wake County Chair, Gray Tompson, at [email protected] to sign up for a shift. Together, we can move North Carolina Forward!
