Texas County and Regional Fairs: The Essentials
Texas county and regional fairs combine youth livestock and creative arts exhibits, a premium sale and, at larger fairs, a carnival and concerts. The Texas Association of Fairs & Events reports more than 100 member fairs, festivals, livestock shows and rodeos. Every fair publishes its own premium list or rulebook, so read it before you enter.
Divisions and deadlines
Some fairs are youth-only, like the Jack County Youth Fair, while the Central Texas Youth Fair in Bosque County adds Junior, Senior and Open Home Economics divisions. Entry deadlines can fall well before the fair: Jack County's livestock entries were due December 1 for a January show, and Central Texas entries were due May 1 for a June show.
Finding a fair
Start with the TAF&E Calendar of Events, then confirm dates, rules and fees with the fair office or your County Extension office.
