2013 Yuma Hamfest & ARRL AZ State Convention

2013 Yuma Hamfest

The 2013 Yuma Hamfest, site of the ARRL Arizona State Convention, is Friday and Saturday, February 15-16, 2013 at the Yuma County Fairgrounds in Yuma, Arizona. Now in our ninth year and one of the largest hamfests in the Southwestern Division, the Yuma Hamfest is one of the few multi-day convention-style hamfests held in Arizona. And the weather is usually sunny and in the mid-70s!

We feature commercial exhibitors and vendors, tailgating, on-site RV camping, free parking, seminars held in parallel tracks in two separate buildings, amateur license testing, DXCC card checking, an antenna clinic & transmitter hunt, our famous “Buzzard BBQ” dinner, grand prizes worth well over $10,000, great hourly door prizes, a hospitality area, the "Country Store" consignment sales area, and much more.

Admission is only $5, tailgating spots are $10 for the weekend, and we offer a food concession run by a professional chef. Our now-famous “Buzzard BBQ” dinner is only $10 and has sold out for the last three years. We are giving away a Samsung Note 10.1 tablet as an admission prize to someone just for attending. Mark the third weekend of February on your calendar and plan on attending the Yuma Hamfest.
