One of Ohio’s Largest County Fairs

The Fulton County Fair is one of Ohio’s most attended and celebrated county fairs, drawing hundreds of thousands of visitors each year to experience its unique blend of tradition, entertainment, and community spirit. At the heart of the fair is agriculture, honoring the hard work of local farmers, showcasing livestock, and offering opportunities for youth to learn and grow through 4-H and FFA projects.

Beyond the barns, fairgoers enjoy thrilling grandstand shows, concerts, rides, and the best fair food around. Known across the state as the “Top of Ohio” fair, it continues to be a highlight of the year for families near and far. In 2025, the Fulton County Fair proudly welcomed over 340,000 guests, a true testament to its reputation as one of the largest and most beloved county fairs in Ohio.
