the union county fair
It's the most anticipated week of the year for our area kids AND parents! Started in Lorimor, Iowa in 1924, and moved to 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. 2024 is the 100th year of the Union County Fair, and we cannot wait to celebrate with each of you. Details for this year's fair can be found by clicking on the links above. Help us celebrate 100 years of raising traditions at the 2024 Union County Fair!
