the union county fair

It's the most anticipated week of the year for our area kids AND parents! Started in Afton, Iowa, in 1953, the Union County Fair has been "Raising Traditions" by encouraging hard work, cultivating leaders, and providing a week's worth of entertainment for all generations. Join us this year as we celebrate the 68th year of the Union County Fair!

​So much more than a fair

The Union County Fairgrounds hosts so many more events than just the Union County Fair. From weddings, to proms, to barrel races, to livestock shows, the Union County Fairgrounds is equipped to host just about any event. We have been so blessed with this wonderful facility, that we want to use it to its full extent. Contact a Fair Board member today to reserve the Union County Fairgrounds for your next event!
