The Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition Digital Collection

A century ago, Seattle hosted its first world's fair, the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition. Held on the campus of the University of Washington, the event drew almost 4 million visitors and put Seattle on the map as a gateway to the Pacific Rim.

In 2009, a centennial celebration of the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition will take place throughout Seattle. For more information on the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition and the centennial celebration, visit www.ayp100.org.
