Jefferson County Fair

The tradition of bringing in person competition and family fun to Jefferson County in early July will return in 2021. The annual event known for its rich history in celebrating the best Agriculture exhibits from Jefferson County youth and adults will include a variety of exhibits such as cattle, horses, sheep, goats, swine, rabbits, poultry, crops, flowers and more competitive exhibits.  “This years’ theme is “Year of the Farmer” and we are beyond excited to showcase in person the many talents of our Jefferson County residents”, said Amy Listle, Fair Park Director. Information on entertainment schedules and how to enter exhibits will be released in coming weeks. A highlight of this year’s entertainment showcase will be country music star Jon Pardi on July 10th. Tickets for the Jon Pardi concert are available for purchase at JCFairPark.com 

Jefferson County Dairy Breakfast

Along standing dairy promotion and community event, the Jefferson County Dairy Breakfast, has been rescheduled from May to August 21, 2021 at the Fair Park from 7:00 a.m. to Noon.

“Although the 2020 Dairy Breakfast drive-thru event was a great success last summer, the goal of the Fair Park Committee, sponsors, vendors, volunteers, other stakeholders and Fair Park staff is to offer an in person 2021 Dairy Breakfast and adjusting the date to August for this year’s event will hopefully allow us to engage consumers and bring an awareness of our proud and robust Jefferson County Dairy Industry” said Amy Listle, Fair Park Director.

Proceeds from the Jefferson County Dairy Breakfast are reinvested back into the community through scholarships, grants and Fair Park improvements.  Additional Jefferson County Dairy Breakfast event information can be found on the Jefferson County Fair Park website: www.JCFairPark.com or by calling the Fair Park office.  Applications for vendor space, sponsorship, volunteer opportunities, scholarships and grants are due by August 1, 2021.
