Alaska–Yukon–Pacific Exposition
1909 exposition in Seattle, Washington
About
The Alaska–Yukon–Pacific Exposition, acronym AYP or AYPE, was a world's fair held in Seattle in 1909 publicizing the development of the Pacific Northwest. It was originally planned for 1907 to mark the 10th anniversary of the Alaska Gold Rush, but the organizers learned of the Jamestown Exposition being held that same year and rescheduled.
The fairgrounds were hosted on an undeveloped portion of the present day campus of the University of Washington.
