The Pierce County Fair, a yearly celebration of rural life, agriculture and family values, is situated amongst the firs and green grass of Frontier Park and offers exhibits and entertainment that are high on economy and low on glitz. Once inside the fairgrounds, most attractions are free of charge and visitors will pull out their purses and wallets only for food and beverages. Fairgoers can sit back and enjoy a wide selection of tasty fair foods while viewing some of our many entertainment acts and attractions.
Some of the acts include hypnotist Jerry Harris, International Championship Wrestling, Joel Brantleys Family Entertainment, Nashville recording artist Jonathan Harris, karate demonstrations, and the Let’s Pretend Circus. Other attractions include 4-H animal exhibitors, open class floral, photography, and home economics shows, and a game zone for kids.
The Pierce County Fair is planned, organized and operated by an all volunteer group of community members. For more information, visit:
