Oswego County, NY — Mark your calendar from June 30 to July 2 to join in the fun as the Oswego County Fair returns after its three-year hiatus.
This year, fair organizers are going back to the basics to bring fair-goers three jam-packed days of festivities.
This year's event was shortened and re-scheduled to July 4th weekend to encourage more visitors over the holiday weekend.
Despite these changes, many favorite traditions will continue. In keeping with its origins as the Oswego County Agricultural Society, the Fair has animal shows scheduled all three days and features barrel racing in the horse arena under the bright lights on Friday.
“It’s been a challenge to re-group after the pandemic,” said Oswego County Fair Board President Harold Smith. “Thanks to community support and past sponsors, we’ve been able to make it this far. We’re going back to our beginnings to bring back that nostalgic joy of a small-town country fair. There’s going to be something for everyone to enjoy – from farm animals to live music to truck pulls to Circus Incredible! – and so much more. I encourage residents and visitors to come check it out!”
Live music is also back and better than ever at the Oswego County Fair. Local and regional acts will be at the entertainment building all weekend.
The Oswego County Fair Board also continues to look for vendors for the event.
Vendors can choose to display on a table inside one of the buildings or set up their display under their tent outside on the grounds. Both options offer the convenience of electricity. The vendor fee is $50 for an outside display, $75 for an inside space, and $100 for food vendors. This covers the full three days of the fair.
The fairgrounds open at 9 a.m. every day, while the buildings are open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday. Shows and events are scheduled at various times throughout the Fair.
